=== Selection ===
The Nobel Committee then prepares a report reflecting the advice of experts in the relevant fields. This, along with the list of preliminary candidates, is submitted to the prize-awarding institutions.<ref name="Feldman52">[[Nobel Prize#Feldman|Feldman]], p. 52.</ref> There are four awarding institutions for the six prizes awarded:
* [[Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences]] – Chemistry; Physics; Economics
* [[Nobel Assembly at the Karolinska Institute]] – Physiology / Medicine
* [[Swedish Academy]] – Literature
* [[Norwegian Nobel Committee]] – Peace
The institutions meet to choose the laureate or laureates in each field by a majority vote. Their decision, which cannot be appealed, is announced immediately after the vote.<ref name="Levinovitz25-28">[[Nobel Prize#Levinovitz69|Levinovitz]], pp. 25–28.</ref> A maximum of three laureates and two different works may be selected per award. Except for the Peace Prize, which can be awarded to institutions, the awards can only be given to individuals.<ref name="Abrams8">[[#Abrams|Abrams]], p. 8</ref> The winners are announced by the awarding institutions during the first two weeks of October.
