SOUNDBITE (German) Anton Zeilinger, Nobel Prize winner for physics:”During the first experiments I was sometimes asked by the press, ‘what all of this is supposed to be good for?’ And I told them: ‘I can tell you with pride – this is good for nothing. I am only doing this out of curiosity because I have been excited by quantum physics from the very moment I first heard about it. Because of the mathematic beauty of this description.”‘FRENCH NATIONAL ASSEMBLYParis, France – 04 October 20229.

SOUNDBITE (English) Alain Aspect, Nobel Prize winner for physics”Well I think it shows that quantum which is fantastic has been here on the agenda for more than one century and there is still a lot of mysteries of stranger things to discover in the quantum. It shows that the quantum is still alive.”15. Wide of Alain Aspect at press conference STORYLINE:Three scientists jointly won this year’s Nobel Prize in physics on Tuesday for their work on quantum entanglement, a “totally crazy” field once of philosophical musings that is developing into somewhat promising real-world use, such as secure encryption of information.Frenchman Alain Aspect, American John F. Clauser and Austrian Anton Zeilinger were cited by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences for discovering the way that unseen particles, such as photons, can be linked, or “entangled,” with each other even when they are separated by large distances.It all goes back to a feature of the universe that even baffled Albert Einstein and connects matter and light in a tangled, chaotic way.Bits of information or matter that used to be next to each other even though they are now separated have a connection or relationship — something that can conceivably help encrypt information or even teleport. A Chinese satellite now demonstrates this and potentially lightning fast quantum computers, still at the small and not quite useful stage, also rely on this entanglement. Others are even hoping to use it in superconducting material.”It’s so weird,” Aspect said of entanglement in a telephone call with the Nobel committee. “I am accepting in my mental images something which is totally crazy.””Why this happens I haven’t the foggiest,” Clauser told The Associated Press during a Zoom interview in which he got the official call from the Swedish Academy several hours after friends and media informed him of his award. “I have no understanding of how it works but entanglement appears to be very real.”His fellow winners also said they can’t explain the how and why behind this effect. But each did ever more intricate experiments that prove it just is.______The Associated Press Health and Science Department receives support from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute’s Department of Science Education.
