But, we'll see as 3.091 progresses, people working almost on the same topic, making new discoveries out of the same lab, one of them might subsequently win the Nobel in physics.
Last week two European researchers received the Nobel Prize in Physics for discovering that a magnetic field significantly reduces the electrical resistance of certain atom-thin metallic sandwiches.
One prediction that can be made with a high level of confidence is that if the Hawking radiation is discovered in the LHC, the man who conceived it will win that year’s Nobel prize for physics.
