Zeilinger and his accomplishments

Anton Zeilinger has been a professor at the University of Vienna since 1999, and Professor Emeritus since 2013. He is considered a pioneer in the transmission of quantum information between photons. Over the past decades, Zeilinger has achieved numerous breakthroughs in his field and set transmission records.

The list of prestigious prizes and awards to the quantum physicist is also long and has now culminated with the Nobel Prize in Physics as reported by Vindobona.org, which he shares with his longtime companions Alain Aspect and John Clauser.

Ten days after the Nobel Prize ceremony in Stockholm, as Vindobona.org reported, Anton Zeilinger was honored by Austria's Federal President Van der Bellen with the "Great Silver Medal with Star for Services to the Republic of Austria".
