it’s an award that speaks to our highest
aspirations that for all the cruelty and
hardship of our world we are not mere
prisoners of faith it’s one of the
highest awards achievable on earth so
the following people really are the best
of the best
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
Nobel Prize winners for this list we’ve
looked at all winners of the Nobel Prize
regardless of the category in which they
won number 10 Verner Heisenberg if you
want to reduce the position uncertainty
by making a smaller wave packet you need
to add more waves which means a bigger
momentum uncertainty if you want to know
the momentum better you need a bigger
wave packet which means a bigger
position uncertainty Werner Heisenberg
was first nominated for the Nobel Prize
in 1928 by Albert Einstein eventually
awarded the 1932 Prize for Physics he
didn’t actually receive his medal until
the following year four wave passes
through a slit it bends at the corners
and radiates out in all directions and
that explains the spreading of the beam
recognized for the creation of quantum
mechanics Heisenberg revolutionized
scientific thought regarding atomic
behavior presenting it all via abstract
mathematical structures called matrices
in 1927 he also identified the
uncertainty principle a fundamental law
of quantum mechanics referring to the
impossibility of exact simultaneous
knowledge of the momentum of a particle
and its position but that goes the very
nature of light is it made of waves or
particles number nine the International
Committee of the Red Cross by having
this improved facilities then all the
market activities are being centralized
here and it’s no being well managed well
coordinated and last crowded than what
we have before the tsunami happened a
unique organization within Nobel Prize
history the ICRC is the only three-time
recipient of the award once you join the
American Red Cross
come one of these merciful workers
winning the Peace Prize in 1917 and 1944
as recognition for its humanitarian
efforts during the first and second
world wars it also shared the 1963 Peace
Prize
with the League of Red Cross societies
furthermore the first-ever peace prize
awarded in 1901 was given to a Sunna the
man who founded the Red Cross movement
in the first place in 1864 an
international diplomatic conference in
Geneva was called the result was the
adoption of the first Geneva Convention
for mutual humanitarian aid and
protection for wounded soldiers number
eight Hermann Joseph Muller awarded his
prize for the discovery that mutations
can be induced by x-rays HJ Muller’s win
was recognition for decades of work in
the field given to him shortly after
World War two and the atomic bombings of
Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan the
prize brought public attention to
Muller’s ongoing campaign to highlight
the dangers of radiation as the world
entered into a cold war state Moller
became an increasingly prominent public
voice highlighting his growing concerns
about atomic warfare number seven jean
posts out one of only two Nobel Prize
winners to voluntarily decline the award
jean-paul sapped did so because in his
view quote a writer must refuse to allow
himself to be transformed into an
institution his great deal great hello
city bozo baby and a partner Oh
Mademoiselle
Pasi lyg laughs another ailment thank
you there were no matter a controversial
figure throughout his life such was in
truth more than just a writer he earned
a worldwide reputation for political
commentary social opinion and
existentialist philosophy he gave
speeches and wrote essays on Cold War
politics especially and sought a higher
understanding of life and how to live it
best lady a zone the public is as it
actually exists statehood is very upset
la patrulla make you Donny the tribal s
is doctor
delightful what’s always Audrey number
six Francis Crick James Watson and
Maurice Wilkins where
I go people always asking me you know
how do we find the structure of DNA the
discoverers of the double helix
structure of DNA Watson Crick and
Wilkins successfully answered biologies
most complex riddle the existence of DNA
had long been accepted before the 1953
determination of its structure but not
until this trio of scientists was
anybody able to understand exactly how
it worked or what it looked like
Rosalind Franklin’s is a fourth name
with strong links to the discovery which
is remembered by most as a joint effort
and process but these three were there
when the code was finally cracked top
was given by a young or 30 year old 35
year old English physicist Morris
Wilkins who serviced crystalline so that
meant DNA had a three-dimensional
structure number 5 Alexander Fleming the
man who discovered penicillin Alexander
Fleming chanced upon his wonder drug
largely by accident in September 1928
Fleming returned from a vacation to used
petri dishes that he’d absent mindedly
left out in his lab the mold almost
certainly came from the laboratory below
his where a researcher was working with
fungi and that mold landed on the dish
at the top of the stack it starts to
grow unexpectedly he found that a mold
had killed the bacteria that had
previously been in them that mold came
to be penicillin
it was another 12 years before Fleming’s
joint Nobel Prize winners Howard Florey
and Ernst Boris chain began
mass-producing the drug but Fleming’s
initial work was what made the
subsequent advances in medicine possible
that wasn’t so bad
that was penicillin number four Martin
Luther King jr. somewhere I read that
the greatness of America is the right to
protest far right a tireless campaigner
for racial equality the Nobel Prize
Institute estimates that Martin Luther
King traveled over six million miles
during his social political career
speaking more than 2,500 times see the
promised land I may not get that with
you but I want you to know the night
that we as a people will get to the
promised man regarded as one of
America’s greatest ever orders King was
the youngest ever recipient of the Peace
Prize at the time of his being awarded
it in 1964 civilization and violence are
antithetical concepts Negroes of the
United States following the people of
India have demonstrated that
non-violence is not sterile passivity
but a powerful moral force which makes
for social transformation it was given
to him just over a year after his
historic I have a dream speech which he
delivered to more than 250,000
supporters from the steps of the Lincoln
Memorial in Washington so even though we
face the difficulties of today and
tomorrow I still have a dream
number three Marie Curie Marie Curie was
the first woman ever to win the Nobel
Prize when she won for physics in 1903
in a Victorian era when opportunities
for women and opportunities for women
academically especially works
dreamy few and far between when she won
the chemistry award eight years later
she became the first person to win twice
and remains the only woman with two
awards she’s also the only person ever
to win twice in multiple Sciences the
1903 award was given to her and two
others
Pierre Curie and Aki Baek held in
recognition of early research into
radiation while the 1911 award was hers
for her work with the newly discovered
elements polonium and especially radium
number two mother Teresa before that it
was a vocation time I was 12 years old
to elect calling to be to belong to
Jesus though some view her as a
controversial figure mother Teresa
worked to improve the lives of the poor
sick and needy across the world born in
Macedonia with Albanian ancestry she
moved to Ireland to practice as a Roman
Catholic sister through this award and
to all of us gathered here together we
are wanting to proclaim the good news to
the poor she then moved to Calcutta
India to teach English where she
experienced a calling telling her to
devote her life to helping those in need
and she certainly did that mother Teresa
set up the missionaries of charity in
1950 which gradually expanded into over
130 countries establishing itself as one
of the great humanitarian achievements
of modern times she was awarded the
Nobel Peace Prize in 1979 forgiveness is
not the luxury of the few it is a simple
duty for each one of us before we unveil
our number one pick here are some
honorable mentions
Robert Koch and his assistants also
learned to prepare and use nutrient
materials his most important work was on
the distribution of energy and radiation
spectrums Planck worked out the
relationship between energy and the
frequency of radiation for two small
nuclei together way less than the
uranium nucleus they emerged from then
part of the mass must have been
transformed into energy so the mass of
the nucleus itself is the source of
energy during the McCarthy period when
many people especially scientists who
had been following approximately the
same course that I was following gave up
I continued because I had to retain the
respect of my wife number one Albert
Einstein it was a complete outsider to
the physics of his day as he was being
in Switzerland being a patent clerk and
yet he was ambitious enough to think
that he could challenge the whole of the
established physics at the time if ever
a person could be considered an
archetype for brainpower and
intellectual thought then it was Albert
Einstein country because really hold on
you consciously building the
intellectual life a man probably most
famous for his theory of relativity he
actually won the Nobel Prize for another
piece of work his discovery of the law
of the photoelectric effect which made
new sense of light the energy that it
carried and how it behaved dramatist
George Bernard Shaw once described
Einsteins genius by calling him a maker
of the universe in terms of the Nobel
Prize he’s the best that’s ever been
awarded it had his cool
quality to it he could see in ways that
no one else could he put together
elements of the universe that others had
not imagined would fit together general
theory of relativity is one of the
greatest achievements of the human mind
