Dr. Becky | I guessed who would win the Nobel Prize in Physics 2023! #shorts @DrBecky | Uploaded 11 months ago | Updated 1 day ago
The Nobel Prize in Physics for 2023 was awarded to Anne L’Huillier, Ferenc Krausz & Pierre Agostini for their work on attosecond Physics to observe electrons moving so you can watch chemical reactions in real time! It’s notoriously difficult to predict who will win the Nobel Prize but I called it 3 days earlier 😂 I am incredibly smug today.

👩🏽‍💻 I’m Dr. Becky Smethurst, an astrophysicist at the University of Oxford (Christ Church). I love making videos about science with an unnatural level of enthusiasm. I like to focus on how we know things, not just what we know. And especially, the things we still don’t know. If you’ve ever wondered about something in space and couldn’t find an answer online - you can ask me! My day job is to do research into how supermassive black holes can affect the galaxies that they live in. In particular, I look at whether the energy output from the disk of material orbiting around a growing supermassive black hole can stop a galaxy from forming stars.
