    Nobel Prize in Physics-2003
    (Nobel Committee for Physics, 2003-10-07) Nobel, Prize
    The quantum physics that controls the micro-world has a wide range of spectacular effects that do not normally occur in our ordinary macro-world. There are, however, certain situations in which quantum phenomena are visible. This year's Nobel Prize in Physics is awarded for work concerning two of these situations: superconductivity and superfluidity. Alexei Abrikosov and Vitaly Ginzburg have developed theories for superconductivity and Anthony Leggett has explained one type of superfluidity. Both superconductivity and superfluidity occur at very low temperatures.
