  "summary": "The Nobel Prize in Physics 2026 has been awarded to Francis Halzen, a Belgian physicist from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA, for his groundbreaking discoveries related to neutrinos. The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences cited Halzen's \"decisive contributions to the IceCube Neutrino Observatory and the discovery of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos\" as the reason for the award. Halzen recognized that the ice of the South Pole could be utilized to detect neutrinos, leading to the development of this observatory, which consists of a cubic kilometer of ice equipped with light sensors. Through IceCube, researchers can capture neutrinos of extremely high energy from distant cosmic processes.",
