Why Did Attosecond Physics Win the Nobel Prize?
Why Did Attosecond Physics Win the Nobel Prize? PBS Space Time
The 2023 Nobel prize in physics has been awarded to three physicists for opening a new window in physics—but it's not a window to a new size scale or a new mode of seeing—-it’s for a new window in time. It’s for attosecond physics—the billionth of a billionth of a second that represents the timescale of the insides of atoms. This year’s Nobel in physics is for a microscope in time.
