A and B were mentioned as potential nobel laureates in 1915, but it is believed that due to their animosity toward each other neither was ever given the award, despite their enormous scientific contributions. There is some indication that each sought to minimize the other one's achievements and right to win the award; that both refused to ever accept the award if the other received it first; and that both rejected any possibility of sharing it—as was rumored in the press at the time. As a matter of fact B had a greater financial need for the award than A; in 1916, he filed for bankruptcy.
