Feynman developed a pictorial representation scheme for the mathematical expressions describing the behavior of subatomic particles, which later became known as Feynman diagrams and remains widely used.
In 1948 in particular, Richard Feynman contributed to creating a new quantum electrodynamics by introducing Feynman diagrams: graphic representations of various interactions between different particles.
Richard Phillips Feynman ( – ) was an American theoretical physicist renowned for his contributions to quantum mechanics, quantum electrodynamics, and particle physics. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1965, jointly with Julian Schwinger and Shin’ichirō Tomonaga, for their work in quantum electrodynamics.
