Comment
Scientific instruments in the 1900's are as inscrutable as the scientific instruments now. Definitely not your basic chemistry set.
Yes, there have been. They won in the same fields twice, different fields twice, but looks like none except Marie Curie that won in two different scientific fields.
You’re exactly right.
Linus Pauling did win for Chemistry and his second was in Peace. All before he went nuts for vitamin C pseudoscience.
You are technically correct, the best kind of correct.
😉 Just following Wikipedia's statement.
