主要原因是张首晟还年轻，来日方长。

    而今年实际得主都已高龄，今年再不给，都有可能见了马克思，那就很遗憾了。

        Thouless, 82, is a professor emeritus at the University of Washington.

        Haldane, 65, is a physics professor at Princeton University in New Jersey.

        Kosterlitz, 73, is a physics professor at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island.

    另外，张首晟的研究与今年这三位诺奖得主虽然有些靠近，但还是有些不好和上述三位归在一起。

    详细见英国《卫报》新闻<<Nobel physics prize 2016 to be shared by British ...>>下面的各名家解读（https://www.theguardian.com/science/live/2016/oct/04/nobel-prize-in-physics-2016-to-be-announced-live），这个俺理解不了。

    张首晟的代表性工作为高温超导的SO(5) 理论、4维量子霍尔效应、室温无耗散自旋流等等，在国际相关研究领域里有较大的影响。2014年他曾作为诺贝尔物理学奖的候选人之一，入选原因是对量子自旋霍尔效应与拓扑绝缘体的理论与实验研究。（2014年Shoucheng Zhang, a J.G. Jackson and C.J Wood professor of physics at Stanford, is a potential Nobel Prize candidate for his internationally recognized research in topological insulators, quantum spin Hall effect, spintronics and high temperature superconductivity. His scientific discovery that was recognized in 2007 is ranked as one of the top-10 scientific breakthroughs ever, according to Science Magazine，http://usa.chinadaily.com.cn/epaper/2014-02/21/content_17297383.htm）

    我的看法是，张首晟将来还有机会得，不要着急。

    得诺奖，看年龄，老的先来，年轻的再等等。

         刚才看到一段话，也许可以进一步说明这个问题-----------“With J. M. Kosterlitz, Professor David J. Thouless developed a theory of vortex-unbinding transitions in two-dimensional systems with continuous symmetry. This has had remarkable consequences and many applications in other areas of physics. He has made clearly apparent the significance of topological concepts (and their related variables) in condensed matter physics and demonstrated their importance for the Quantum Hall effect.”这是不是说实际诺奖得主的工作对张的量子霍尔效应工作有什么前导性影响？
