The prize was awarded to Pierre Agostini, Ferenc Krausz and Anne L’Huillier for their research studying the behavior of electrons at a tiny time scale.

Quantum mechanics depicts a counter-intuitive reality in which the act of observation influences what is observed — and few can agree on what that means.

Alexandru Lupsasca and Michael Johnson won the New Horizons award for their work on photon spheres — weird rings of light around black holes that may reveal a theory of quantum gravity.
