Our paper “La Física del Comportamiento Humano” (The Physics of Human Behavior, by R. A. Baños, C. Gracia-Lazaro & Y. Moreno), has been awarded as the best research paper published in the journals of the Spanish Royal Society of Physics (RSEF). The award, which is given once every year, is conferred by the RSEF and it is sponsored by the BBVA Foundation. In the article, we discuss how Physics is providing new insights to social phenomena, including the emerge and evolution of human cooperation and the dynamics and structure of social online networks. We also present our view of how Physics can benefit from studying these complex, adaptive and often out of equilibrium systems. The work contains both experimental and theoretical-computational analyses. Read it (in Spanish) in the link provided below.
