"for discovering that methods developed for studying order phenomena in simple systems can be generalized to more complex forms of matter, in particular to liquid crystals and polymers"* Scientists must ensure research details do not fall into terrorists' hands, say experts Full Story Sounds impractical. An important feature of scientific achievements is flexibility. One may be able to use technical concepts from one field of science to another. We'll never know where else the results of a research work may be used. This article reveals that stuff required to assemble a destructive bomb is available to anybody with a little technical knowledge (according to another article I couldn't find the online link, it will cost less than £50/$80 to make a bomb strong enough to blow up a car, all stuff available in supermarkets) *The Nobel Prize Committee explanation for why the physics prize was given to Dr Pierre-Gilles de Gennes, from College de France at 1991.
