The Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to the discoveries of black holes by Roger Penrose, Reinhard Genzel, and Andrea Gies. Hanson, secretary of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, said at a ceremony Tuesday in Stockholm that this year’s prize was about “the darkest mysteries of the universe”. Penrose was awarded the prize “for discovering that black hole formation is a strong prediction of general relativity.” Genzel and Ghez are honored for “discovering a compact, supermassive object at the center of our galaxy”. Guise, a professor at the University of California, Los Angeles, is only the fourth woman to win the Nobel Prize in Physics. It was awarded to a woman for the first time in 55 years in 2018. “I think today I am more enthusiastic about the educational side of my job than ever before,” she said after the announcement. “Because it is very important to convince the younger generation that their ability to question, and their ability to think, is only necessary for the future of the world.” “I feel very happy to receive the award and I take seriously the responsibility associated with being the fourth woman to win a Nobel Prize. I hope to inspire other young women in this field,” said Ghez. Marie Curie, the only woman to have been honored twice by the Nobel Committee, won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1903 and the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1911. Penrose, a professor at Oxford University, worked with fellow physicist Stephen Hawking to merge Einstein’s theory of relativity with quantum theory to suggest that space and time would begin with the Big Bang and end with black holes. Genzel is director of the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics in Garching, Germany, and a professor at the University of California, Berkeley. The Nobel Prize in Chemistry will be announced on Wednesday, followed by the Nobel Prize in Literature on Thursday, the Nobel Prize for Peace on Friday and the Prize in Economic Sciences next Monday.

नोबेल पुरस्कार विजेता साहित्यकार सर भिएस नायपालको निधन भएको छ । ८५ वर्षका विश्व चर्चित साहित्यकार नायपालको लण्डन स्थित घरमै निधन भएको पावारिक स्रोतले जानकारी दिएको छ । उपन्यासकार नायपलाको ट्रिनिडाडको ग्रामीण क्षेत्रमा सन् १९३२ मा जन्म भएको थियो । नायपालले बेलायतको अक्सफोर्ड युनिभर्सिटीमा अध्ययन गरेका हुन् । उनका धेरै चर्चित पुस्तक छन्। त्यसमध्ये ‘अ बेन्ड इन द रिभर’ र ‘अ हाउस फर मिस्टर विश्वास’ सबैभन्दा चर्चित पुस्तकका रुपमा रहेका छन् । उनले ३० भन्दा धेरै पुस्तक लेखेका छन् । नायपालले सन् १९७१ म बुकर प्राइज तथा सन् २००१ मा साहित्य तर्फको नोबेल पुरस्कार पाएका थिए । उनले नोबेल पुरस्कार ग्रहण गरेपछि आफ्ना पुर्खा नेपालबाट आएको हुन सक्ने बताएका थिए । निधन पश्चात उनकी श्रीमती नादिराले भनेकी छन्, ‘उनले सिर्जनशीलता र उद्यमले भरिएको जीवन बाँचे । अन्तिम सास लिने बेलामा उनलाई माया गर्ने र उनले माया गर्ने सबै व्यक्ति साथमा थिए ।’ सन् १९५० मा उनले सरकारी स्कलरसिप पाएका थिए, त्यसपछि उनी अध्ययनका लागि अक्सफोर्ड विश्वविद्यालय गए । विद्यार्थी जीवनमा उनी डिप्रेशनमा पनि गएका थिए, जसले गर्दा नायपालले आत्महत्याको प्रयास पनि गरेका थिए । नायपालको पहिलो पुस्तक ‘द मिस्टिक म्यासर’ सन् १९५१ मा प्रकाशित भएको थियो । त्यसको एक दशकपछि उनको सबैभन्दा चर्चित उपन्यास ‘अ हाउस फर मिस्टर विश्वास’ प्रकाशित भयो । नायपालले तीन वर्ष लगाएर यो उपन्यास लेखेका थिए । नोबेल कमिटिले साहित्यको माध्यमबाट बितेको इतिहासका बारेमा रहेको भ्रामक बुझाइलाई स्पष्ट पारेकोमा सन् २००१ मा नोबेल पुरस्कार दिएको हो ।
