Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser, and Anton Zeilinger jointly received the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics for their pioneering discoveries in quantum information science.
The experiments by Alain Aspect and John Clauser definitively showed the existence of entanglement, supporting quantum mechanics.
John F. Clauser, a Columbia graduate, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics along with Alain Aspect and Anton Zeilinger, for his work on entangled particles, initiated at Columbia University in 1969.
In May 2023, Clauser joined the board of the CO2 Coalition, an organization critical of conventional climate change narratives.
John Francis Clauser was born on December 1, 1942, in Pasadena, California. His father, Francis H. Clauser, was a professor of aeronautical engineering at Johns Hopkins University and later at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). His mother, Catharine McMillan, served as the humanities librarian at Caltech. Clauser pursued his higher education at Caltech, where he earned a Bachelor of Science in physics in 1964. He continued his studies at Columbia University, receiving a Master of Arts in physics in 1966 and a Doctor of Philosophy in physics in 1969, under the guidance of Patrick Thaddeus.
From 1969 to 1975, Clauser worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California, Berkeley, and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. During this period, in 1972, he collaborated with graduate student Stuart Freedman to conduct the first experimental test of the CHSH-Bell’s theorem predictions, which marked the first experimental observation of a violation of a Bell inequality. His work continued to advance in 1974 when, alongside Michael Horne, he demonstrated that a generalization of Bell’s Theorem placed significant constraints on local realistic theories of nature. That same year, he made the initial observation of sub-Poissonian statistics for light, providing clear evidence of the particle-like nature of photons.
Clauser served as a research physicist primarily at Lawrence Livermore and Berkeley from 1975 to 1997. In 1976, he performed the world’s second experimental test of the CHSH-Bell’s Theorem predictions. Over his career, he has been recognized for his profound impact on the field, culminating in the shared 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics with Alain Aspect and Anton Zeilinger for their groundbreaking experiments with entangled photons, solidifying the violation of Bell inequalities and laying the foundation for quantum information science. He had previously been awarded the Wolf Prize in Physics in 2010 with Aspect and Zeilinger.
