    The Nobel Prizes are awarded without regard to {nationality;} the judges
    are, by the terms of Nobel's will, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences
    (physics and chemistry, as well as economic science), the Swedish
    Royal Caroline Medico-Surgical Institute (physiology or medicine),
    the Swedish Academy (literature), and a committee elected by the
    Norwegian parliament (peace). The awards are made on Dec. 10, the
    anniversary of Nobel's death, the Peace Prize being presented in
    Oslo and the others in Stockholm.
