Nobel Prize in Physics
yearly physics award given by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences
27 dated entries naming Nobel Prize in Physics, drawn from 26 separate years between 1845 CE and 1976 CE. Nothing here is written by us: each line is the sentence a Wikipedia year article used, and the link beside it opens the exact revision.
Also written as Nobel Prize for Physics in the source articles; Wikipedia redirects those to the same subject, so their entries are on this page.
