A trio of scientists have given humanity a brand new device for exploring the motion of electrons inside atoms and molecules, and that groundbreaking work was honoured right this moment with the world’s prime prize in science.

The Nobel Basis in Stockholm, Sweden is handing out its {hardware} this week – right this moment asserting the winner of the Nobel Prize in physics. The scientists found a method to examine adjustments in electrons by creating pulses of sunshine that final solely an attosecond –  a unit of time equal to a couple of billionth of a billionth of a second.
