諾貝爾委員會指出，三位科學家發現宇宙中深處、奇異的現象─黑洞。包括黑洞結構與廣義相對論的關係，以及在銀河系中心發現一個不可見、超大質量物體掌控著星體運行，即是目前為止得出的唯一解釋─黑洞。
物理獎主席David Haviland表示，三位學者的研究對理解超大質量物體有突破性的貢獻，但這神秘奇異的物體仍有許多問題待解決，包括內部結構、以及如何即時、近距離在黑洞中測試重力理論等問題。

Three Laureates share this year’s Nobel Prize in Physics for their discoveries about one of the most exotic phenomena in the universe, the black hole. Roger Penrose showed that the general theory of relativity leads to the formation of black holes. Reinhard Genzel and Andrea Ghez discovered that an invisible and extremely heavy object governs the orbits of stars at the centre of our galaxy. A supermassive black hole is the only currently known explanation.
“The discoveries of this year’s Laureates have broken new ground in the study of compact and supermassive objects. But these exotic objects still pose many questions that beg for answers and motivate future research. Not only questions about their inner structure, but also questions about how to test our theory of gravity under the extreme conditions in the immediate vicinity of a black hole”, says David Haviland, chair of the Nobel Committee for Physics.
