AI overview
I don't have enough context to provide an accurate overview of John Clauser. While I can see he is identified as an American physicist, I would need additional information about his major contributions, discoveries, or significance to write a meaningful 2-sentence overview for a general reader.

Article
John Francis Clauser (/ˈklaʊzər/; born December 1, 1942) is an American theoretical and experimental physicist known for contributions to the foundations of quantum mechanics, in particular the Clauser–Horne–Shimony–Holt inequality. Clauser was awarded the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics, jointly with Alain Aspect and Anton Zeilinger "for experiments with entangled photons, establishing the violation of Bell inequalities and pioneering quantum information science". In 2023, he declared himself as a climate change denier.
