Detailed explanation-1: -Physicists from Austria have created new form of Hydrogen i.e. negatively charged hydrogen clusters.

Detailed explanation-2: -Otto Robert Frisch, (born October 1, 1904, Vienna, Austria-died September 22, 1979, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, England), physicist who, with his aunt Lise Meitner, described the division of neutron-bombarded uranium into lighter elements and named the process fission (1939).

Detailed explanation-3: -Lise Meitner helped discover the radioactive element protactinium, and was the first to describe and coin the term “nuclear fission” in a scientific paper. She was the first woman physics professor in Germany.

Detailed explanation-4: -From 1918 to 1920 he made substantial contributions to the theory of colour vision. Schrödinger had worked at Vienna on radioactivity, proving the statistical nature of radioactive decay. He had also made important contributions to the kinetic theory of solids, studying the dynamics of crystal lattices.
