Nobel Prize in Physics () is awarded annually by the
Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences to scientists in the various fields of
physics. It is one of the five
Nobel Prizes established by the 1895
will of

Nobel Foundation, The first prize in physics was awarded in 1901 to
Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen, of Germany, who received 150,782
SEK.
John Bardeen is the only laureate to win the prize twice—in 1956 and 1972.
William Lawrence Bragg was the youngest Nobel laureate in physics; he won the prize in 1915 at the age of 25. He was also the youngest laureate for any Nobel prize until 2014 (when
Malala Yousafzai won the Nobel Peace Prize at the age of 17).WEB, Why Nobel-Winning Scientists are Getting Older,

Marie Curie (1903),

Nobel Foundation, Before L’Huillier, each woman only ever received a quarter share of the prize, although Marie Curie did receive an
unshared Nobel prize in chemistry in 1911. In 2023, L’Huillier received a one-third share.There have been six years for which the Nobel Prize in Physics was not awarded (1916, 1931, 1934, 1940–1942). There were also nine years for which the Nobel Prize in Physics was delayed for one year:
- The 1914 prize awarded to Max von Laue was announced only in November 1915.
- The Prize was not awarded in 1917, as the Nobel Committee for Physics decided that none of that year’s nominations met the necessary criteria, but was awarded to Charles Glover Barkla in 1918 and counted as the 1917 prize.
- This precedent was followed for the 1918 prize awarded to Max Planck in 1919,
- the 1921 prize awarded to Albert Einstein in 1922,WEB, The Nobel Prize in Physics 1921, Nobel Foundation,nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/physics/laureates/1921/index.html, 23 May 2018,nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/physics/laureates/1921/index.html," title="web.archive.org/web/20081017151250nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/physics/laureates/1921/index.html,">web.archive.org/web/20081017151250nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/physics/laureates/1921/index.html, 17 October 2008, live,
- the 1924 prize awarded to Manne Siegbahn in 1925,
- the 1925 prize awarded to James Franck and Gustav Hertz in 1926,
- the 1928 prize awarded to Owen Richardson in 1929,
- the 1932 prize awarded to Werner Heisenberg in 1933, and
- the 1943 prize awarded to Otto Stern in 1944.
A 2020 study reported that half of the Nobel Prizes for science awarded between 1995 and 2017 are clustered in few disciplines.
Particle physics (14%),
atomic physics (10.9%), and 3 non-physics disciplines dominate the prize in recent decades, followed by
semiconductor physics and
magnetics.JOURNAL, Ioannidis, John, Cristea, Ioana-Alina, Boyack, Kevin, 29 July 2020, Work honored by Nobel prizes clusters heavily in a few scientific fields,
