French scientist Serge Haroche and American David Wineland have won the 2012 Nobel Prize for physics for work in quantum physics.

The Royal Swedish Academy says the two opened the door to a new era of experimentation with quantum physics by demonstrating the direct observation of individual quantum particles without destroying them. The award carries a prize of 8 million crowns, or 1.2 million US dollars.

Physics is the second of this year’s crop of awards. The prizes for achievements in science, literature and peace, were first awarded in 1901. They were set up in accordance with the will of Swedish dynamite millionaire Alfred Nobel.
