...M.I.T., he and a friend, Theodore Welton, re-created for themselves much of the physics discovered in the quantum revolution that had taken place in Europe during the 1920s. And although he shared the 1965 Nobel Prize for the theory of quantum electrodynamics with Julian Schwinger and Shin'ichiro Tomonaga, Feynman had an approach that was typically bizarre. Instead of using conventional calculations, he invented "Feynman diagrams," arrows and squiggles that mapped the comings and goings of particles so effectively that they are now a standard tool of physicists...
...notes were Harvard University's Dr. Robert Burns Woodward, 48, with the prize for chemistry; Harvard's Dr. Julian Schwinger, 47, and Dr. Richard P. Feynman, 47, of the California Institute of Technology, who share the physics prize with Tokyo's Dr. Shin-ichiro Tomonaga, 59; Francois Jacob, 45, Andre Lwoff, 63, and Jacques Monod, 55, sharing the prize for medicine; and Cossack Novelist (And Quiet Flows the Don) Mikhail Shololchov, 60, who says he shares the prize for literature with the Soviet people even though the award does come "a little late...
...named to receive the 1965 Nobel Prize for chemistry for his "contributions to the art of organic synthesis," notably his synthesis of chlorophyll in 1961; Dr. Julian Schwinger, 47, also of Harvard, Dr. Richard P. Feynman, 47, of the California Institute of Technology, and Dr. Shin-ichirō Tomonaga, 59, of the Tokyo University of Education, who will share the Nobel Prize for physics for their work, independent of one another, in defining the basic theories of quantum electrodynamics 20 years...
