| Summary: | The laureates of the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physics are three researchers: Pierre Agostini (The Ohio State University, USA), Ferenc Krausz (Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics, Garching and Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, Germany), and Anne L'Huillier (Lund University, Sweden). The prize was awarded for developing experimental methods that allow the generation of extremely short (attosecond) laser light pulses to study the dynamics of electrons in matter. The paper presents information about the scientific achievements of this year's Nobel laureates, which "give humanity new tools for exploring the world of electrons inside atoms and molecules." The paper describes the fundamental physical experiments that launched the new scientific field of attosecond physics. With its development, world science has gained many opportunities to study various fundamental physical processes and phenomena, as well as to create cutting-edge technologies, a brief overview of which is provided in the paper. A description of the new physical phenomenon discovered by the laureates, which was called electron-ion recollision, is given. |
