ProductsIdentification of strong prospects for Nobel Prize in Physics

The list below presents Clarivate Citation Laureates in the field of Physics, individuals regarded as strong prospects for receiving the Nobel Prize in Physics. As of 2024, twenty-two honorees identified since 2008 have subsequently been awarded the Nobel Prize. This distinguished group includes laureates such as Albert Fert and Peter Grünberg (2007), Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov (2010), Dan Shechtman who won in Chemistry (2011), Saul Perlmutter, Adam Riess, and Brian Schmidt (2011), François Englert and Peter W. Higgs (2013), Shuji Nakamura (2014), Arthur B. McDonald (2015), Kip Thorne and Rainer Weiss (2017), Michel Mayor and Didier P. Queloz (2019), Roger Penrose (2020), Giorgio Parisi (2021), as well as Alain Aspect, John Clauser, and Anton Zeilinger (2022), and most recently Ferenc Krausz (2023).
