According to the AP, physicists often solve problems that seem far from everyday concerns, such as small particles, the mysteries of space and time, etc., but their studies provide a foundation for many practical applications of science.
Last year, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to three scientists - Syukuro Manabe, Klaus Hasselmann and Giorgio Parisi - individuals who have contributed to explaining and predicting the complex forces of nature, thereby expanding humanity's understanding of climate change.
The week of announcing the Nobel Prize began on October 3 with Swedish scientist Svante Paabo receiving the Nobel Prize in Biology for Neanderthal's DNA secret unlocking work, providing important understanding of the human immune system.
