- Title
The Nobel Prize in Physics 2023.

- Abstract
The Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Pierre Agostini of Ohio State University, Ferenc Krausz of the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics and the Ludwig-Maximilian University of Munich and Anne L'Huillier of the Lund University for "experimental methods that generate attosecond pulses of light for the study of electron dynamics in matter". The Prize acknowledges the tremendous experimental progress in the past 35 years that eventually enabled the investigation of the fastest electron transition processes in atoms, molecules and solids by using state-of-the-art femtosecond laser technology. As a result, a new field of research emerged and shortly after the establishment of the field of femtochemistry, attophysics came of age.
