Congratulations to Emeritus Professor Pierre Agostini, who has won the Nobel Prize in Physics for his study of electron dynamics in matter.

“The Nobel Prize is the pinnacle of scientific achievement,” said Peter Mohler, acting president and executive vice president for research, innovation and knowledge at Ohio State. “All of us at Ohio State celebrate this recognition of Pierre’s lifetime of research and scholarship.”

Agostini shares the award with Ferenc Krausz from the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics and Anne L’Huillier from Lund University in Sweden. Their work has produced pulses of light so short that they are measured in attoseconds, demonstrating that these pulses can be used to provide images of processes inside atoms and molecules.
