Dear Colleagues,<br>
<br>
The American Institute of Physics congratulates this year's Nobel<br>
Laureates in Physics "for the discovery of the accelerating<br>
expansion of the Universe through observations of distant<br>
supernovae." Sharing half the prize is Saul Perlmutter from<br>
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and University of<br>
California, Berkeley. Sharing the other half jointly are Brian P.<br>
Schmidt from the Australian National University, and Adam G.<br>
Riess from Johns Hopkins University and Space Telescope Science<br>
Institute.<br>
<br>
AIP is pleased to make available free of charge a selection of<br>
research papers these Nobel Laureates have published in our<br>
journals, Conference Proceedings, and Physics Today magazine. To<br>
view any of these materials go to<br>
<a href="http://journals.aip.org/Nobel2011.html" target="_blank">http://journals.aip.org/Nobel2011.html</a>.<br>
<br>
We will build on this material throughout the day to bring you a<br>
host of additional resources, including an overview of the work<br>
done by these three scientists, plus related links, photos and<br>
interviews.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
