Nobel Prize Winners

Adolph Butenandt was born in Bremerhaven-Wesermünde on March 24th, 1903. He then grew up in Bremerhaven and attended college there.

No, Aristotle did not win a Nobel Prize, as these prestigious awards were not established until the late 19th century, long after Aristotle's time. Aristotle was a Greek philosopher, scientist, and teacher who lived in the 4th century BCE.

Richard P. Feynman won The Nobel Prize in Physics in 1965.

The Nobel Prize in Physics 2009 was divided, one half awarded to Charles K. Kao for groundbreaking achievements concerning the transmission of light in fibers for optical communication,the other half jointly to Willard S. Boyle and George E. Smith for the invention of an imaging semiconductor circuit ? the CCD sensor.

The Nobel Prize in Physics 2008 was divided, one half awarded to Yoichiro Nambu for the discovery of the mechanism of spontaneous broken symmetry in subatomic physics,the other half jointly to Makoto Kobayashi and Toshihide Maskawa for the discovery of the origin of the broken symmetry which predicts the existence of at least three families of quarks in nature.

George F. Smoot won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2006 for his work on the Cosmic Background Explorer satellite, which helped confirm the Big Bang theory by measuring the fluctuations in the cosmic microwave background radiation. His research provided important insights into the early universe and the formation of galaxies.

Frank Wilczek won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2004 for his work on the strong force, one of the four fundamental forces in nature. He, along with David Gross and David Politzer, were awarded the prize for discovering asymptotic freedom, which explains how quarks behave at close distances within atoms.

The Nobel Prize in Physics 2002 was divided, one half jointly to Raymond Davis Jr. and Masatoshi Koshiba for pioneering contributions to astrophysics, in particular for the detection of cosmic neutrinos and the other half to Riccardo Giacconi for pioneering contributions to astrophysics, which have led to the discovery of cosmic X-ray sources.

The Nobel Prize in Physics 2001 was awarded jointly to Eric A. Cornell, Wolfgang Ketterle and Carl E. Wieman for the achievement of Bose-Einstein condensation in dilute gases of alkali atoms, and for early fundamental studies of the properties of the condensates.

The Nobel Prize in Physics 2000 was awarded for basic work on information and communication technology with one half jointly to Zhores I. Alferov and Herbert Kroemer for developing semiconductor heterostructures used in high-speed- and opto-electronics and the other half to Jack S. Kilby for his part in the invention of the integrated circuit.

William D. Phillips won The Nobel Prize in Physics in 1997 for his development of methods to cool and trap atoms using laser light. This breakthrough paved the way for highly precise measurements and further advancements in the field of atomic physics.

Robert C. Richardson, along with David M. Lee and Douglas D. Osheroff, won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1996 for their discovery of superfluidity in helium-3 at temperatures close to absolute zero. Their research provided important insights into the properties of matter at extremely low temperatures, expanding our understanding of quantum physics.

The Nobel Prize in Physics 1995 was awarded for pioneering experimental contributions to lepton physics jointly with one half to Martin L. Perl for the discovery of the tau lepton and with one half to Frederick Reines for the detection of the neutrino.

The Nobel Prize in Physics 1994 was awarded for pioneering contributions to the development of neutron scattering techniques for studies of condensed matter jointly with one half to Bertram N. Brockhouse for the development of neutron spectroscopy and with one half to Clifford G. Shull for the development of the neutron diffraction technique.

The Nobel Prize in Physics 1993 was awarded jointly to Russell A. Hulse and Joseph H. Taylor Jr. for the discovery of a new type of pulsar, a discovery that has opened up new possibilities for the study of gravitation
