StarStarStarStar

Max Planck

StarStarStarStar

1918, in recognition of the services he rendered to the advancement of Physics by his discovery of energy quanta

StarStarStarStar

James Clerk Maxwell

StarStarStarStar

Did not receive a Nobel Prize, but is notable for his formulation of the classical theory of electromagnetic radiation

StarStarStarStar

Steven Weinberg

StarStarStarStar

1979, for their contributions to the theory of the unified weak and electromagnetic interaction between elementary particles, including, inter alia, the prediction of the weak neutral current

StarStarStarStar

Guglielmo Marconi

StarStarStarStar

1909, in recognition of their contributions to the development of wireless telegraphy

StarStarStarStar

Albert Einstein

StarStarStarStar

1921, for his services to Theoretical Physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect

StarStarStarStar

Peter Higgs

StarStarStarStar

2013, for the theoretical discovery of a mechanism that contributes to our understanding of the origin of mass of subatomic particles, and which recently was confirmed through the discovery of the predicted fundamental particle, by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at CERN's Large Hadron Collider

StarStarStarStar

Paul Dirac

StarStarStarStar

1933, for the discovery of new productive forms of atomic theory

StarStarStarStar

Richard P. Feynman

StarStarStarStar

1965, for their fundamental work in quantum electrodynamics, with deep-ploughing consequences for the physics of elementary particles

StarStarStarStar

Niels Bohr

StarStarStarStar

1922, for his services in the investigation of the structure of atoms and of the radiation emanating from them

StarStarStarStar

Erwin Schrödinger

StarStarStarStar

1933, for the discovery of new productive forms of atomic theory

StarStarStarStar

Wolfgang Pauli

StarStarStarStar

1945, for the discovery of the Exclusion Principle, also called the Pauli Principle

StarStarStarStar

Marie Curie

StarStarStarStar

1903, in recognition of the extraordinary services they have rendered by their joint researches on the radiation phenomena discovered by Professor Henri Becquerel

StarStarStarStar

Werner Heisenberg

StarStarStarStar

1932, for the creation of quantum mechanics, the application of which has led, inter alia, to the discovery of the allotropic forms of hydrogen

StarStarStarStar

Enrico Fermi

StarStarStarStar

1938, for his demonstrations of the existence of new radioactive elements produced by neutron irradiation, and for his related discovery of nuclear reactions brought about by slow neutrons

StarStarStarStar

Chen Ning Yang

StarStarStarStar

1957, for their penetrating investigation of the so-called parity laws which has led to important discoveries regarding the elementary particles
