EGNA ASSOCIATIONER Nobelpristagare som engagerat sig i energifrågor efter att de fått priset Pyotr Kapitza 1978 "for his basic inventions and discoveries in the area of low-temperature physics”. ”The choice of the theme for my Nobel lecture presents some difficulty forme. Usually the lecture is connected with work recognized by the prize. In my case the prize was awarded for work in low temperature physics, at temperatures of liquid helium, a few degrees above absolute zero. It so happened that I left this field some 30 years ago… Personally I am now studying plasma phenomena at those very high temperatures that are necessary for the thermonuclear reaction to take place… It is also well recognized that at present the controlled thermonuclear reaction is the process for producing energy that can effectively resolve the approaching global energy crisis, resulting from the depletion of fossil fuels used now as our principal energy source.” Steven Chu, Claude Cohen-Tannoudji, William Phillips 1997 "for development of methods to cool and trap atoms with laser light".

ATOMKRAFT Otto Hahn 1944 "for his discovery of the fission of heavy nuclei". Fysikpris med anknytning: Chadwick 1935 (neutron), Fermi 1938 (kärnreaktioner med långsamma neutroner).
