LESSON NOTES Noble prize winners in physics since 2010
LESSON OBJECTIVE Students to have ideas about major themes that head to the front of success, in the field of scientific research.
The Nobel Prize in physics 2019 It was awarded for contributions to our understanding of the universe evolution and earth’s place in the cosmos for discoveries in cosmos physics with one half to james peebles and another to Michel mayor for discovering exo planet
The Nobel Prize in Physics 2018 “for groundbreaking inventions in the field of laser physics” Arthur Ashkin “for the optical tweezers and their application to biological systems” Gérard Mourou and Donna Strickland “for their method of generating high-intensity, ultra-short optical pulses”
The Nobel Prize in Physics 2017 Rainer Weiss, Barry C. Barish and Kip S. Thorne “for decisive contributions to the observation of gravitational waves” The Nobel Prize in Physics 2016 David J. Thouless, F. Duncan M. Haldane and J. Michael Kosterlitz “for theoretical discoveries of topological phase transitions and topological phases of matter”
The Nobel Prize in Physics 2015 Takaaki Kajita and Arthur B. Mc. Donald “for the discovery of neutrino oscillations, which shows that neutrinos have mass” The Nobel Prize in Physics 2014 Isamu Akasaki, Hiroshi Amano and Shuji Nakamura “for the invention of efficient blue light -emitting diodes which has enabled bright and energy-saving white light sources”
The Nobel Prize in Physics 2013 François Englert and Peter W. Higgs “for theoretical discovery of a mechanism that contributes to our understanding of the origin of mass of subatomic particles The Nobel Prize in Physics 2012 Serge Haroche and David J. Wineland“for groundbreaking experimental methods that enable measuring and manipulation of individual quantum systems”
The Nobel Prize in Physics 2011 Saul Perlmutter, Brian P. Schmidt and Adam G. Riess“for the discovery of the accelerating expansion of the Universe through observations of distant supernova” The Nobel Prize in Physics 2010 Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov “for groundbreaking experiments regarding the twodimensional material graphene”
ESSAY WRITING PROCESS Prepare an outline or diagram of your ideas. Write your thesis statement. Write the body. Write the main points. Write the sub points. Elaborate on the sub points. Write the introduction. Write the conclusion. Add the finishing touches.
Essay structure Introduction - The focus of the essay. - The thesis statement : one sentence to show the points that you are going to discuss in the essay
Body paragraphs - Topic sentence : general idea about the paragraph. - Supporting details: examples or evidence or analysis. - Concluding sentence: closing idea X 3
Conclusion - Restate thesis - Summarize
Assignment Choose one Nobel prize winning themes, make a research and write an academic essay about it.
Clarification Write an introduction to the Nobel winning theme that you have chosen. Answer the following questions in the body paragraphs ( one paragraph for each question) -How was the research made ? - -what are the main ideas of that winning theme? - -what are the benefits of the research theme for the world of physics? Conclusion.
