The Nobel Prize in Physics is one of the five awards established by the famous Swedish chemist Alfred Bernhard Nobel's will, with part of his inheritance as a fund. It aims to reward achievements in the field of physics. Scientists with outstanding contributions.
In its more than 100 years of history, there have been many outstanding winners.
The situation of the Nobel Prize winners in physics in the past ten years is as follows:
In 2021, the Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to three scientists.
Among them, Japanese-American scientist Shuro Manabe and German scientist Klaus Hasselmann won the prize for their research on "building a physical model of the Earth's climate, quantifying its variability and reliably predicting global warming", Italian scientist George • Parisi for "discovery of the interaction of disorder and fluctuations in physical systems ranging from atomic to planetary scales".
In 2020, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to three laureates "for their discovery of one of the most bizarre phenomena in the universe - black holes".
British scientist Roger Penrose was awarded for proving that black holes are a direct result of Einstein's general theory of relativity; German scientist Reinhard Genzel and American scientist Andrea Getz were awarded for the discovery of a supermassive object in the center of the Milky Way And winning.
On September 22, local time, an image released by the European Southern Observatory and the Event Horizon Telescope in collaboration shows a static image of Sagittarius a*, the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way.
Astronomers have spotted signs of a "hot spot" orbiting Sagittarius a*, the black hole at the center of the Milky Way.
The discovery contributes to a better understanding of the mysterious and dynamic environment of supermassive black holes.

In 2019, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to scientists in two fields. Among them, Canadian-American scientist James Peebles won the award for his theoretical discoveries in the field of physical cosmology; Swiss scientist Michelle Mayor and Swiss scientist Didier Queloz won the prize for "discovering exoplanets orbiting other sun-like stars".
In 2018, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to American scientist Arthur Ashkin, French scientist Gérard Mouroux and Canadian scientist Donna Strickland for their breakthroughs in the field of laser physics contribute.
In 2017, Rainer Weiss, Barry Barris and Jeep Thorne were awarded for their research on gravitational wave detection.
In 2016, British scientists David Solis, Duncan Haldane and Michael Kosterlitz won the award for their theoretical discovery of topological phase transitions and topological phases of matter.
In 2015, Japanese scientist Kajita Takaaki and Canadian scientist Arthur MacDonald jointly won the Nobel Prize in Physics.
The pair were awarded for their discovery of neutrino oscillations, proving that neutrinos have mass.

In 2014, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Japanese scientist Isamu Akasaki, Japanese-American scientist Shuji Nakamura and Japanese scientist Hiroshi Amano.
They developed blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that enabled power-saving, high-brightness lighting fixtures that dramatically changed people's lives.
In 2013, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to the Belgian theoretical physicist François Engler and the British theoretical physicist Peter Higgs for their prediction of the Higgs glass known as the "God particle". Awarded for the presence of dice.
In 2012, the Nobel Prize in Physics was won by French scientist Serge Arroche and American scientist David Weinland. The two physicists were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for their understanding of the close relationship and interaction between light and matter in the field of quantum optics. Awarded for research on the role of
