It is a prize I was expecting and it is fair, although there have to be three winners and someone can always be left out. It involves devising new ways of measuring that go further, and every time a new window opens, knowledge opens. Being able to follow the movement of electrons in units of attoseconds, which is one millionth of a billionth, is a feat. And extending it to solids as well. [In terms of possible applications] If we are able to follow the movement of electrons in such small times, we may be able to direct them more precisely in therapies.
