A This article shows the biographies of the four women, Maria Goeppert-Mayer, Donna Strickland, Andrea M. Ghez and Anne L'Huillier, who, in that order, followed, although many years later, in 1963, 2018, 2020 and 2023, respectively, the path that Marie Curie initially opened in 1903, when she was the first woman to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics. The objective is to reveal to society the lives and scientific works of these four women, giving special emphasis to the important achievements they have obtained, taking into account that, with some slight exception in the scientific world, the four ones are quite unknown by the rest of society in general.
