X- Ray Astronomy and Types of Telescopes / by Bounds, Nikki 650341, Petit, Keri, author 650342

“…Based on discoveries in this new field, Ricardo Giacconi received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2002. It was found that the X-ray emission of Sco X-1 was 10,000 times greater than its optical emission, based on a precise location obtained with a modulation collimator - a specific type of coded aperture imager.…”

The 2015 Physics Nobel Prize by José Maria Filardo Bassalo

“…In this article, we will address the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physics awarded to the physicists: the japanese Takaaki Kajita (n.1959) and the canadian Arthur Bruce McDonald (n.1943) for the discovery of neutrino oscillations, which shows that neutrinos have mass.…”

Entanglement—A Higher Order Symmetry by Paul O’Hara

“…In quantum mechanics, many subatomic particles can form entangled pairs that are mirror images of each other, although the state of an individual particle cannot be duplicated or cloned as experimentally demonstrated by Aspect, Clauser and Zeilinger, the winners of the Nobel Prize in Physics 2022. We show that there is a higher-order symmetry associated with the SL(2,C) group that underlies the singlet state, which means that the singlet pairing preserves Lorentz transformations independently of the metric used. …”

About Roy Glauber by Bretislav Friedrich, Daniel Kleppner, Dudley Herschbach

“…Admitted to Harvard at age 16, called upon to participate in the Manhattan Project at age eighteen, and appointed to the Harvard Physics faculty at age 29, Glauber is credited with seminal contributions to three separate fields of physics: nuclear scattering, statistical physics, and foundational work in quantum optics, which earned him the 2005 Nobel Prize in Physics. Over decades, Glauber was also a dedicated teacher of high‐school, college, and graduate students. …”

Bell correlations outside physics by C. Gallus, E. M. Pothos, P. Blasiak, J. M. Yearsley, B. W. Wojciechowski

“…The seminal contributions from John Bell offer a framework for analyzing the correlations between the components of quantum mechanical systems and have instigated an experimental tradition which has recently culminated with the Nobel Prize in Physics (2022). In physics, Bell’s framework allows the demonstration of the non-classical nature of quantum systems just from the analysis of the observed correlation patterns. …”
