The Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to
Peter Higgs and François Englert for the theory of how particles
acquire mass. In 1964, they proposed the theory independently of each
other, and last year their ideas were confirmed by the discovery of a
so called Higgs particle at the CERN laboratory in Switzerland.

The Nobel Peace Prize 2013
Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW)
"for its extensive efforts to eliminate chemical weapons"
The Nobel Peace Prize for 2013
The
Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided that the Nobel Peace Prize
for 2013 is to be awarded to the Organization for the Prohibition of
Chemical Weapons (OPCW) for its extensive efforts to eliminate chemical
weapons.
During World War One, chemical weapons were used to a considerable
degree. The Geneva Convention of 1925 prohibited the use, but not the
production or storage, of chemical weapons. During World War Two,
chemical means were employed in Hitler’s mass exterminations. Chemical
weapons have subsequently been put to use on numerous occasions by both
states and terrorists. In 1992-93 a convention was drawn up prohibiting
also the production and storage of such weapons. It came into force in
1997. Since then the OPCW has, through inspections, destruction and by
other means, sought the implementation of the convention. 189 states
have acceded to the convention to date.
The conventions and the work of the OPCW have defined the use of
chemical weapons as a taboo under international law. Recent events in
Syria, where chemical weapons have again been put to use, have
underlined the need to enhance the efforts to do away with such weapons.
Some states are still not members of the OPCW. Certain states have not
observed the deadline, which was April 2012, for destroying their
chemical weapons. This applies especially to the USA and Russia.
Disarmament figures prominently in Alfred Nobel’s will. The Norwegian
Nobel Committee has through numerous prizes underlined the need to do
away with nuclear weapons. By means of the present award to the OPCW,
the Committee is seeking to contribute to the elimination of chemical
weapons.
