The 2016 Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded for discoveries about strange forms of matter.<\/p>\n

Three Britons, David Thouless, Duncan Haldane and Michael Kosterlitz, will share the 8m kronor (\u00a3727,000) prize.<\/p>\n

They were named at a press conference in Sweden, and join a prestigious list of 200 other Physics laureates recognised since 1901.<\/p>\n

The Nobel Committee said this year’s laureates had “opened the door on an unknown world”.<\/p>\n

In this mysterious realm, matter can exist in strange states.<\/p>\n

Their discoveries had helped scientists designing new materials.<\/p>\n
