Jul 16, 1994 · 12 February 1918. New York, USA. Died. 16 July 1994. Los Angeles, California, USA. Summary. Schwinger formulated quantum electrodynamics and thus reconciled quantum mechanics with Einstein's special theory of relativity. View four larger pictures. Biography. Julian Schwinger progressed rapidly through the public school system of New York City.
Apr 1, 2002 · Julian Schwinger (1918–1994) was a legendary figure in the history of fundamental physics. While still a teenager, he amazed leaders of theoretical physics in the US with his prodigious theoretical insights. As a young Harvard professor, he quickly became the supreme intellectual leader in quantum field theory (QFT) and particle physics.
Jul 16, 1994 · Julian Schwinger was born on 12th February 1918 in New York City. Fiercely independent, he taught himself physics and mathematics by reading books and journals. With his exceptional gift in grasping the profound ideas of physics, he debuted as a theoretical physicist at the age of sixteen, to be judged by a first publication.
Jul 20, 1994 · Julian Schwinger, a theoretical physicist whose work in electro dynamics earned him a Nobel Prize in 1965, died on Saturday at his home in Los Angeles. He was 76. He died of pancreatic cancer,...
Aug 14, 2003 · Abstract. Julian Schwinger was one of the leading theoretical physicists of the 20th century. His contributions are as important, and as pervasive, as those of Richard Feynman, with whom he shared the 1965 Nobel Prize for Physics (along with Sin-itiro Tomonaga).
Julian Seymour Schwinger ( / ˈʃwɪŋər /; February 12, 1918 – July 16, 1994) was a Nobel Prize -winning American theoretical physicist. He is best known for his work on quantum electrodynamics (QED), in particular for developing a relativistically invariant perturbation theory, and for renormalizing QED to one loop order.
Julian Schwinger began the construction of Source Theory in 1966 in response to the then apparent failure of quantum field theory to describe strong interactions, the physical remoteness of renormalization, and the utility of effective actions in describing chiral dynamics.
