"Groundbreaking Discoveries in Universe's Structure Earn Scientists Coveted Physics Prizes"
Three scientists have been awarded the New Horizons Prize in Physics and $100,000 for their contributions to understanding the large-scale structure of the universe and developing new tools to extract fundamental physics from galaxy surveys. Their work focuses on studying the cosmic web, a vast interconnected structure of matter that holds clues to the universe's fundamental forces. The prize is given annually to early career researchers by the Breakthrough Prize Foundation, and the money is donated by tech billionaires.
