Feynman diagram

English 2018 May 11 Etymology thumb|A Feynman diagram illustrating the electron-positron scattering process known as Bhabha scattering Named after its inventor, American theoretical physicist Richard Feynman (1918–1988).

The Feynman diagram method is applied to the computation of the correlation of the fields at different points in space to any order of approximation. en w:Tony Hey; Gyuri Pápay Preface The Computing University: A Journey through a Revolution New York, N.Y. w:Cambridge University Press 2015 vii https://books.google.com/books?id=NrMkBQAAQBAJ&pg=PR7 978-0-521-76645-6 Among physicists, Feynman is probably best known for Feynman diagrams, the work that brought him his Nobel Prize in 1964. The diagrams constitute a computational tool kit that enables physicists to make sense of not only Quantum Electrodynamics, the theory that underpins electricity and magnetism, but also of the relativistic quantum field theories believed to describe the weak and strong interactions of elementary particles.
