                     STOCKHOLM, Sweden
                     (CNN) -- Two Americans and a Frenchman were named Wednesday 
                     as co-recipients of the 1997 Nobel Physics Prize for their "development of
                     methods to cool and trap atoms with laser light." 

                     Steven Chu of Stanford University, William D. Phillips of the U.S.
                     National Institute of Standards and Technology in Maryland and
                     Claude Cohen-Tannoudji of France were announced as this year's
                     winner. 

                     "The new methods of investigation that the Nobel laureates have
                     developed have contributed greatly to increasing our knowledge of
                     the interplay between radiation and matter," said the citation from
                     the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. 

                     The academy added that their work "may lead to the design of
                     more-precise atomic clocks for use in space navigation and
                     accurate determination of position." 

                     The prestigious award is worth $1 million. 

                     It is the second year in a row that the physics prize has gone for
                     work done at temperatures of near-absolute zero, the point at
                     which all movement theoretically stops. 

                     Last year's prize went to Americans David M. Lee, Robert C.
                     Richardson and Douglas C. Osheroff for discovering that a helium
                     isotope behaves in unusual ways at extremely low temperatures. 

                     All the prizes are presented on December 10, the anniversary of
                     Alfred Nobel's death. The peace prize is presented in Oslo,
                     Norway; the others in Stockholm.
