		We are delighted to announce that Anthony J. Leggett (University of Illinois, Urbana), a current member of the Editorial Board for New Journal of Physics, is the co-recipient of the 2003 Nobel Prize in Physics.
		Tony Leggett cleverly combined the Landau theory of Fermi liquids, the BCS theory of metallic superconductivity and the theory of nuclear magnetic resonance to explain and predict the main properties of the new superfluid phases.
		Characteristically, Leggett was the last in the low temperature community to be convinced that he had indeed formulated the correct theory.

	Nobel Focus: Helium Impersonates a Superconductor
		Leggett's comprehensive 1965 paper analyzed the consequences of helium-3 atoms forming pairs and showed that a superfluid state could have significantly different magnetic properties than the normal state.
		Leggett and others expected the pairs would have a spin value of one, rather than zero, as in a superconductor.
		Leggett "understood that well [and] went through the ramifications very carefully." Further investigations during the 1970s revealed the phases that Leggett described in his 1972 paper.

		Professor Leggett’s research group is exploring a scenario for cuprate superconductivity in which a major factor is the reduction, due to increased screening by the Cooper pairs, of the long-wavelength, mid-infrared-frequency part of the Coulomb interaction.
		In addition, independently of this scenario, his group is attempting to explain the c-axis transport properties of the cuprates and are looking at some problems associated with the “pseudogap” regime and with the peculiar features resulting from the existence of gap nodes.

	The Nobel Prize in Physics 2003
		It was Anthony Leggett who unravelled the puzzle of interpreting the experimental data with the correct theoretical picture.
		The NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) data identifying the new phases exhibited sharp resonance frequencies, unexpectedly shifted in the A but not in the B phase, which Leggett explained in terms of a new 'spontaneously broken spin-orbit symmetry'.
		Soon after the discovery of the new superfluids, Leggett presented his explanation for the observed shift in terms of a dipole field enhanced by the macroscopic alignment of nuclear spins and predicted the existence of additional longitudinal modes in the AM and BW phases.

		This year's Nobel Prize in physics is awarded to three physicists who have made decisive contributions concerning two phenomena in quantum physics: superconductivity and superfluidity.
		The decisive theory explaining how the atoms interact and are ordered in the superfluid state was formulated in the 1970s by Anthony Leggett.
		Recent studies show how this order passes into chaos or turbulence, which is one of the unsolved problems of classical physics.
