Nobel Laureate Prof. Pierre Agostini on the Evolution and Impact of Attosecond Science

Prof. Pierre Agostini, awarded the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physics alongside Ferenc Krausz and Anne L’Huillier, has significantly advanced our understanding of electron dynamics through the development of attosecond pulses. These ultra-short pulses of light have opened new avenues for observing the rapid movements of electrons within atoms and molecules, marking a pivotal shift in both fundamental physics and applied sciences. Attosecond technology,…Pierre Agostini Read Article

Nobel Laureate Conversation: Prof. J. Michael Kosterlitz

Prof. J. Michael Kosterlitz is the 2016 Nobel Prize Winner for Physics. Through his career, he overturned the conventional understanding that two-dimensional systems could not undergo phase transitions due to thermal fluctuations, along with David Thouless. They showed that vortex-antivortex pairs play a key role in phase transitions, leading to a topological phase transition now known as the Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) transition. He is a true traiPierre Agostini Read Article
