Hanna Stjärne, who is currently the Director General of Swedish Television, will be the new Executive Director of the Nobel Foundation.

Meet 2023 physics laureate Ferenc Krausz as he recalls a scientific journey which has spanned three countries – and to which Krausz attributes his Nobel Prize.

”These particles were discovered more than a hundred years before. It took an utter century to develop the tools to actually capture them in motion. It was an indescribable moment”, he says as he recalls how this moment of discovery was a long time in the making. Krausz was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for giving humanity new tools to exploring the world of electrons inside atoms and molecules.

This year’s Nobel Prize announcements will take place 7–14 October.
