2008 Nobel Prize Winner Videos

Hey everyone. My previous post on Nobel Prize Winner Talks included lectures from 1999 to 2007. This time I want to update on this topic and list Nobel Prize Winner Videos from 2008.

They include Physics Nobel Prize, Chemistry Nobel Prize, Medicine Nobel Prize, Psychology Nobel Prize, Literature Nobel Prize, Peace Nobel Prize and Economics Nobel Prize.


The Nobel Prize in Physics 2008

• Yoichiro Nambu - for the discovery of the mechanism of spontaneous broken symmetry in subatomic physics: Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking in Particle Physics: a Case of Cross Fertilization.

• Makoto Kobayashi - for the discovery of the origin of the broken symmetry which predicts the existence of at least three families of quarks in nature: CP Violation and Flavour Mixing.

• Toshihide Maskawa - for the discovery of the origin of the broken symmetry which predicts the existence of at least three families of quarks in nature: What Does CP Violation Tell Us?
