the theory of quantum electrodynamics, and the physics of the superfluidity of supercooled liquid helium,
as well as in particle physics. For his contributions to the development of quantum electrodynamics,
Feynman, jointly with Julian Schwinger and Tomonaga, received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1965.
