He himself modestly called them \"X-rays\". Rtgen's name and his rays became world famous. On 10 December 1901, Rtgen received the first Nobel Prize in Physics. X-rays have lost none of their appeal since then. They still permeate all areas of science, technology and medicine and accompany us in our everyday lives. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHowever, Rtgen's scientific work cannot be reduced to this one great discovery alone.
