    Extractions: "What Do You Care What Other People Think?" was the last book that Richard P. Feynman wrote. He died of cancer in 1988. Feynman was many things, a husband, a musician, and a teacher. But most importantly, Feynman was a physicist. Feynman was born in 1918, and his love of science was fostered by his father's enthusiasm for the natural world and his own wonderment at how things worked. Throughout his long career, Feynman worked in Los Alamos on the Atomic Bomb and developed advanced theories on quantum mechanics. In 1965 he received a Nobel Laureate in Physics for his work in quantum electrodynamics. He also helped to introduced thousands of students to the wonders of Physics, both while teaching at several prestigious universities, and via his public lectures and the numerous books he wrote that were geared to a general readership.

62. Richard P. Feynman—Who Changed The Image Of Science
    feynman was awarded nobel Prize in Physics in 1965 with University Press, Princeton,1985; The Art of richard P. feynmann by Michelle feynman, Gordon  
    http://www.vigyanprasar.com/dream/april99/AprilArticle.htm
    
    Extractions: Richard Phillips Feynman’s life and work signify the joy of discovery and the pleasure of exploring things. He demonstrated that doing science could be fun. He provided an "image of science that cut right across the stereotype". He loved people more than he loved physics. He believed that the highest forms of under standing one can achieve are laughter and human compassion. He was an accomplished drummer. He was so fascinated with drumming that he hardly missed any opportunity to beat a rythm - whether on a wall, a table, a pot or on a pan. He enjoyed listening to African drum music. He also became an accomplished amateur artist and he could organise an exhibition on his own. And, of course, Feynman is one of greatest physicists that the 20 th century produced. He was a great problem solver even if it meant breaking a lock. Above all Feynman was a simple man, who could laugh and make others laugh and so as Hans Bethe wrote, "More than other scientists, he (Feynman) was loved by his colleauges and his students." And as Laurie Brown and John Rigden have stated, "there is an important sense in which all modern physicists are Feynman’s students." He taught his students how to think, to reject any theory if it did disagree with experimental facts and he inspired them to appreciate nature and love science. He epitomised honesty and integrity. The whole basis of the scientific pursuit of knowledge as percieved by Feynman can be seen from his following observations:

    Extractions: Richard Feynman I feel a particular fondness for Feynman. He had such a nice Rockaway accent and mannerisms, coupled with a Nobel-Prize-winning way of making the really difficult concepts nearly transparent: He had the genius to put them in everyday terms. Feynman was at once both fiercely empirical as well as intensely curious, both child-like qualities. This Nobel-winning physicist deserves a spot on every scientist's bookshelf.

    Extractions: HUTCHINSON ENCYCLOPEDIA Feynman, Richard P(hillips) US physicist whose work laid the foundations of quantum electrodynamics. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1965 for his work on the theory of radiation. He shared the award with Julian Schwinger and Sin-Itiro Tomonaga. He also contributed to many aspects of particle physics, including quark theory and the nature of the weak nuclear force. For his work on quantum electrodynamics, he developed a simple and elegant system of Feynman diagrams to represent interactions between particles and how they moved from one space-time point to another. He derived rules for calculating the probability of the interaction represented by each diagram. His other major discoveries are the theory of superfluidity (frictionless flow) in liquid helium, developed in the early 1950s his work on the weak interaction (with US physicist Murray Gell-Mann) and the strong force and his prediction that the proton and neutron are not elementary particles. Both particles are now known to be composed of quarks.

    Extractions: Richard P. Feynman, a Nobel laureate in physics, best-selling author and former member of the presidential commission that investigated the Challenger disaster, died Monday night in Los Angeles. He was 69. Mr. Feynman, who died at the University of California at Los Angeles Medical Center after an eight-year battle with abdominal cancer, was a popular and energetic lecturer who, despite his illness, continued to teach at the California Institute of Technology until two weeks ago. Mr. Feynman graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1939 and received his doctorate from Princeton University in 1942. He was a member of the team that developed the first atomic bomb at the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory. He was widely known for his insatiable curiosity, gentle wit, brilliant mind and playful temperament. These qualities were clearly evident in his popular 1985 book of reminiscences, "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman," which was on the New York Times best-seller list for 14 weeks. MIT physicist Philip Morrison called Mr. Feynman "the most original theoretical physicist of our time," according to a report by United Press International. Morrison said Mr. Feynman, who called his Nobel Prize "a pain in the neck," was "extraordinarily honest with himself and everyone else," and added that "he didn't like ceremony or pomposity . . . he was extremely informal. He liked colorful language and jokes."

    http://www.discovery.com/stories/technology/nanotech/pioneers.html
    
    Extractions: The science of building small was first introduced in 1959 by Richard P. Feynman, a Nobel Prize-winning physicist, in a lecture titled "There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom." At that time most scientists were thinking big about interplanetary space travel, but Feynman awakened them to possibilities of controlling single molecules or even atoms and creating machines with them. Nearly 40 years later, physicists, chemists, molecular biologists and computer scientists around the world are working in nanotechnology. RICHARD E. SMALLEY In 1996, Richard E. Smalley received the Nobel Prize in chemistry for discovering "Buckminster Fullerenes." Named after the architect who invented the geodesic dome, these soccer ball-shaped pure carbon molecules, dubbed "buckyballs," and their cylindrical cousins "nanotubes" are likely to be the strongest substance in existence. Nanotubes are created by vaporizing carbon with a laser and then letting it reassamble in an inert gas such as helium. Aside from creating super-strong polymers that could replace the graphite used in everything from tennis racquets to airplanes, nanotubes could be used as circuits in the nanoelectronic devices of the future. In his lecture "Nanotechnology and the Next 50 Years," Smalley forecasts that, with the right advances in technology, a nanometer-sized solar cell could be built. Such devices could potentially provide for the world's energy needs in the year 2050.

    Extractions: The Early Life of Dr. Richard P. Feynman Richard Feynman was a modern Renaissance man. Hailed as a scientist, musician, Nobel Laureate, and teacher. He played in a street band in Rio de Janerio, deciphered Mayan hieroglyphics, a fundamental contributor to quantum electrodynamics, and one of two learned men of his time on Tanna Tuva, his experience and skill were of a broad range and applications. Born in 1918 in Far Rockaway, New York, Richard Feynman started working with and studying electronics at a young age. At eleven, he began to repair radio systems as a hobby, for hotels and homes alike. Because it was the Depression, and he worked for free, he received a good deal of demand. He wasn't trying to make a profit; he wanted to learn more about them, by repairing. His spare time was usually spent experimenting with various different electronics. He once crafted a radio that could pick up signals from Texas, and used it to "predict" radio shows, by listening to them a few hours before the local stations broadcast them. Back Home Next

    Extractions: Richard P. Feynman was born in Far Rockaway, New York, in 1918. He studied at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he graduated in 1939. He went on to Princeton and received his Ph.D. in 1942. During World War II he worked at the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory. He became Professor of Theoretical Physics at Cornell University, where he worked with Hans Bethe. He basically built the theory of quantum electrodynamics (QED) and for his work shared the Nobel Prize in 1965. His simplified rules of calculation became standard tools of theoretical analysis in both quantum electrodynamics and high-energy physics.

(Courtesy of California Institute of Technology) Feynman was a visiting professor at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) in 1950 and later that year accepted a permanent faculty appointment. He became Richard Chace Tolman Professor of Theoretical Physics in 1959. Over the years he worked with Nobel laureate Murray Gell-Mann. He had an extraordinary ability to communicate his science to audiences at all levels and was a well-known and popular lecturer. Series of his lectures have been collected and published; these include

    Extractions: The Character of Physical Law By Richard P. Feynman Feynman was one of the greatest physicists of our century. He was also a peculiar and iconoclastic character, a fact that's been acknowledged and exploited by the editorial industry, with the result of a growing number of books by and about him. There will, no doubt, be a Hollywood film on Feynman. His most admired trait was his ability to see things from a different, path-breaking perspective, and to convey difficult concepts in a simple language. The Character of Physical Law is probably the best example of that ability. There's no best introduction to understand what Physics is about, what we know and what we don't know.

    Extractions: Why do we do science? Beyond altruistic and self-aggrandizing motivations, many of our best scientists work long hours seeking the electric thrill that comes only from learning something that nobody knew before. The Pleasure of Finding Things Out , a collection of previously unpublished or difficult-to-find short works by maverick physicist Richard Feynman, takes its title from his own answer. From TV interview transcripts to his acceptance speech for the Nobel Prize, we see his quick, sharp wit, his devotion to his work, and his unwillingness to bow to social pressure or convention. It's no wonder he was only grudgingly admired by the establishment during his lifetimeread his "Minority Report to the Space Shuttle Challenger Inquiry" to see him blowing off political considerations as impediments to finding the truth.

    Extractions: Richard P. Feynman biography Years later he came up with new quantum theory (Quantum electrodynamics) which brought him a Nobel Prize for Physics in 1965. His theory has been proved to be the most accurate scientific theory created. bodyOffer(16060) Richard Feynman was born on May 11, 1918 in Brooklyn to Lucille and Melville Feynman. Since childhood he was known for his fascination towards science and puzzles. He almost reinvented everything that he studied. While in school, rather than learning trigonometry from the book, he reinvented all the formulas himself: he was quite successful. On his summer job he invented a new method for carrying many dishes at a time and to cut many beans at a time, however, not always in this was he successful. While working on the atom bomb at Los Alamos he figured out how to crack top-secret safes and just for amusement he took every opportunity to open them. He got his Bachelor of Science degree from MIT in 1939 and received his doctorate at Princeton University in 1942. In 1942 he got married to his childhood sweetheart, Arlene Greenbaum, who was suffering from fatal tuberculosis of lymphatic system. In 1945 she died in the hospital. Feynman could never really get over his grief of losing her.

    Extractions: RICHARD P. FEYNMAN What Is Science? "Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts." The author of the following article makes this statement as a part of his ideas about the nature of science. Try to decide what you believe could be meant by such a statement after reading Feynman's ideas. It is also suggested by the is Nobel Prize winner in physics that "mathematics is looking for patterns." is this what you would have said if asked to define mathematics? How about energy? Can you define energy? Dr. Richard P. Feynman was born in New York on May 11, 1918. He received his B. S. degree at MIT in 1939, and his Ph.D. at Princeton University in 1942. At Princeton, he worked on the problem of the separation of U 235 from U 238 in connection with the Manhattan Project, and in 1942, he joined the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory. There, as group leader in theoretical physics, he made important contributions to the development and understanding of the atomic bomb. In 1945, he joined the staff of the Laboratory of Nuclear Studies at Cornell University. He remained there until 1950, when he went to the California Institute of Technology where he now serves as Richard Chace Tolman Professor of theoretical physics. Professor Feynman received the Albert Einstein Award in 1954 and the Atomic Energy Commission's E.O. Lawrence Award in 1962 for "especially meritorious contributions to the development, use or control of atomic energy." In 1965, he received the Nobel Prize in

He was known to be passionate about drumming, but was irritated when people found this surprising in a famous scientist. He says his drum-beating has nothing to do with his doing theoretical physics. On the other hand, Feynman also says that the different aspects of nature are really different aspects of the same thing. Does Feynman contradict his "go-to-hell" statement if the "same thing" is applied to himself? No! Feynman was a freedom-loving human being in physics and elsewhere.
