The 2020 Nobel Prize for Physics has been awarded to Roger Penrose, Reinhard Genzel and Andrea Ghez for their work on black holes.
The prize is worth 9 million Swedish krona (about $1 million) and half goes to Penrose, with Genzel and Ghez sharing the other half of the prize.
The Nobel Committee cites Penrose “for the discovery that black hole formation is a robust prediction of the general theory of relativity”, and Genzel and Ghez “for the discovery of a supermassive compact object at the centre of our galaxy”.
Roger Penrose is 89 and a British citizen. Reinhard Genzel is 68 and a German citizen. Andrea Ghez is 55 and an American citizen.
