In 1983 It Was Fun To Imagine With Nobel Prize-Winning Physicist Richard Feynman

 

RICHARD Feynman(1918-1988) won the 1965 Nobel Prize in physics for his work in solving problems with the theory of quantum electrodynamics:

Richard Phillips Feynman was an American physicist known for the path integral formulation of quantum mechanics, the theory of quantum electrodynamics and the physics of the super fluidity of super cooled liquid helium, as well as work in particle physics (he proposed the Parton model). For his contributions to the development of quantum electrodynamics, Feynman was a joint recipient of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1965, together with Julian Schwinger and Sin-Itiro Tomonaga. Feynman developed a widely used pictorial representation scheme for the mathematical expressions governing the behavior of subatomic particles, which later became known as Feynman diagrams. During his lifetime and after his death, Feynman became one of the most publicly known scientists in the world.

 

 

 

In 1983, the BBC’s Fun To Imagine series asked him a question:

 

If you enjoyed that you can watch The Feynman Lectures on Physics.

 

This is how to enjoy a trip to the dentist:
