The 2016 Nobel Prize in Physics is shared by three scientists, the Royal Academy of Sciences announced in Stockholm on Tuesday. The Nobel Prize in Physics 2016 was divided, with one half awarded to David J.Thouless, the other half to F. Duncan M. Haldane and J. Michael Kosterlitz "for theoretical discoveries of topological phase transitions and topological phases of matter(物质拓扑相变和拓扑相)."

Haldane said he was "very surprised" at the news, adding that he was glad that their discoveries found something previously unnoticed by many, and that they revealed "more possibilities for looking for new materials. " He particularly pointed out that a lot of work was still ongoing.

The year's prize amount is 8 million Swedish krona（0. 93 million US dollars),and will be split properly between the three winners.

The winners are given a sum of money when they receive their prizes, in the form of a document confirming the amount awarded. The amount of prize money depends upon how much money the Nobel Foundation can award each year. The purse has increased since the 1980s, when the prize money was 880,000 SEK per prize. In 2009, the monetary award was 10 million SEK (US$1. 4 million; €950,000). In June 2012, it was lowered to 8 million SEK.

If there are two winners of a particular prize, the award money is divided equally between the winners. If there are three, the awarding committee can choose to divide the money equally, or award one-half to one winner and one-quarter to each of the others. It is common for winners to donate prize money to benefit scientific, cultural, or charities.

He was a great scientist and inventor himself. Besides, he had a big business. His business may surprise you. He made and sold explosives(炸药). His companies even made and sold weapons. Isn't this something that surprises you? Though Alfred Nobel had a lot of money from weapons, he hated war. He even set up the Peace Prize, hoping that there would be no war in the world.

Most Valuable Possessions on Earth

Marie was a single mother of two children in a rural Missouri community. She also dedicated much spare time to numerous charities and community projects.

Then one day Marie received some shocking news from her doctor. She had cancer, and it was spreading rapidly.

Soon , Marie witnessed what she had always known: although she was not financially wealthy, she already had the most valuable possessions on earth. Hundreds in her community and surrounding areas teamed up to help her and her family.

Many people she had touched in caring ways demonstrated appreciation for Marie's life. However, she lived long enough to feel the love of those she had cheerfully served.

The spirits of love and gratitude multiply(增加) when they are shared. Giving selflessly was a value that Marie displayed all her life, and her spirit of giving lived after her in those who knew and loved her.

All her life, Marie had demonstrated（演示） the truth of this simple principle: Rather, it is an attitude that comes from appreciating what we already have. We can find the happiness we seek if we will first share it with others. Then —— and only then——we will have the most valuable possessions on earth: love, happiness, and increasing gratitude.

D. Marie didn't live to see the day when her bills were fully paid.
