Title: 2012 physics noble prize
Post by: kevinkevin on October 17, 2012, 01:11:43 AM

  I heard that the noble prize was just awarded in physics last week.  The only problem is that i'm a little confused about the topic.  Does anyone know what the winners showed or proved?  All I really know is that it involved the observation of atoms to analyze photons and that the experiments took place in a 0.8 kelvin box with mirrors on the walls.  Thanks
