The 2022 Nobel Prizes are being announced this week after secret deliberations by the award committees. Here’s a look at which prizes have been announced so far, which ones are coming up and what’s next for the winners.
PHYSICS
The Nobel Prize in physics was awarded Tuesday to Frenchman Alain Aspect, American John F. Clauser and Austrian Anton Zeilinger. The trio shared the prize for discovering the way that unseen particles, known as photons, can be linked, or “entangled” with each other, even when they are separated by large distances.
MEDICINE
The medicine or physiology prize is by tradition the first Nobel to be announced.
