The 2018 Nobel Prize in Literature was suspended after a scandal rocked the Swedish Academy. The sixth one, the peace prize, is handed out in Oslo, Norway on the same day. Earlier, the Chemistry prize went on Wednesday to three scientists for their work leading to the development of lithium-ion batteries. That was a day after the Physics award was given to a Canadian-American and two Swiss, and on Monday the Physiology or Medicine award went to two Americans and one British scientist. The coveted Nobel Peace Prize will be announced on Friday and the Economics award on Monday.
