    • Abstract:
      Three scientists jointly won this year™s Nobel Prize in physics Tuesday for proving that tiny particles could retain a connection with each other even when separated, a phenomenon once doubted but now being explored for potential real-world applications such as encrypting information.Frenchman Alain Aspect, American John F. Clauser and Austrian Anton Zeilinger were cited by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences for experiments proving the œtotally crazy field of quantum entanglements to be all too real. They demonstrated that unseen particles, such as photons, can be linked, or œentangled, with each other even when they are separated by large distances. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
