The reason the physical prince Stephen Hawking did not win the Nobel prize

Stephen Hawking is one of the most prominent scientists but he has never been named at the prestigious Nobel Prize ceremony.

Professor Stephen Hawking received numerous awards for his achievements in scientific research, but he never won a Nobel Prize because no one can prove his theories , according to News.com.au. The Nobel Prize Review Board is always directed towards authentic evidence instead of great thought.

Professor Hawking is a theoretical physicist with profound thinking. However, his judgments about black holes and the universe still have no evidence to prove, what physics awards always require. "The Nobel prize is not given to the smartest person or the greatest contribution to science. It was given for discovery. Hawking's best hypotheses have not yet been tested, which is why he he did not win the prize, "explained Sean Carroll, a physicist at the California Institute of Technology.

Professor Hawking is often compared to Albert Einstein, a Nobel laureate. But the Nobel prize that Einstein won did not honor his famous theory of relativity but for the description of the photoelectric effect after Robert Millikan validated this theory, according to astronomer at Harvard University, Avi Loeb.

The gravitational wave hypothesis proposed by Einstein was also not honored in the most prestigious scientific award until researchers directly observed ripples in the space-time field. And Peter Higgs's hypothesis about the "Lord's seed" called Higgs Boson only won the Nobel prize when the particle was actually discovered by the Large Particle Accelerator at the European Nuclear Research Organization (CERN). "In any case, it must be an experimentally confirmed prediction , " Loeb concluded.

Smaller black holes with an asteroid certainly produce more Hawking radiation than larger black holes, according to Loeb."People look for small black holes of such mass, but have not found any black holes," Hawking said in a 2016 lecture. "This is a pity if they can find out. I will win the Nobel Prize ".

Professor Hawking lost a chance to win another Nobel Prize when an experiment at first seemed to find ripples from the early bloat of the universe, which could confirm the existence of Hawking radiation. But observations are not convincing, according to Loeb.

"Professor Hawking is a great scientist with great contributions to science. The departure of Professor Hawking at age 76 is a loss for the scientific world," said Goran Hansson, a spokesman for the Korean Academy. The Swedish Forest Science is in charge of giving the Nobel Prize in physics, said. Hansson declined to comment on whether Hawking was worthy of a Nobel Prize.

Loeb said Hawking's life and career show that awards may not be so important. " I think his life journey points to something much more important than the Nobel Prize, " Loeb said.
