The year was 1900 and Max Planck was a young physicist working on the problem of blackbody radiation. This was an intense area of research because the experimental data—the radiation emitted by ...

GOLETA, Calif. – Michel H. Devoret was one of three physicists who won this year’s Nobel Prize in physics for a series of experiments they conducted more than four decades ago. As a postdoctoral ...
