Please, Radio4, your metaphors are destroying my will to live! That's the plan, isn't it!? 😱
"quantum tunnelling is like a barrier, think of it as like a hill and the electron needs to have enough petrol to go over it" [paraphrase but very close]

In that light, here's my suggestion: After honoring Roger Penrose last year, who, don't get me wrong, certainly deserved any prestigious award, he's still much more of a mathematician, so something like the Fields Medal might have been much more fitting, even back when he was young enough to fit their profile. But nevermind, Ed Witten got that one, one of the most intimidating theoretical pysicists you might imagine, and not a mathematician.
So this is the second year in a row where the Nobel for physics didn't go to a physicist. Maybe the reason is simply that physicists have stopped making progress. There is just nothing to award for, so of course the commitee reached out to adjacent professions. It's either that or not award the prize at all!

The announcement of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics left me wondering if JK Rowling or Paulo Coelho are contenders for the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
