The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics to Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser and Anton Zeilinger


Alain Aspect, John Clauser and Anton Zeilinger have each conducted groundbreaking experiments using entangled quantum states, where two particles behave like a single unit even when they are separated. Their results have cleared the way for new technology based upon quantum information.

Alberto Casas presents his latest book


A fascinating tour, from Schrödinger's cat to quantum computing.

Álvaro de Rújula receives the Medal of the Royal Spanish Society of Physics


For "his exceptional scientific career in the field of theoretical physics, which has made him a world leader".
