First appearance of Feyman's landmark Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) illustrated but his famous Feynman-Diagrams which ""revolutionized nearly every aspect of theoretical physics"" (Kaiser, Physics and Feynman's Diagrams). The whole field of quantum electrodynamics advanced greatly because of this graphical formalism, which allowed researchers to communicate in an effective manner. Feynman, Schwinger and Tomonago shared the 1965 Nobel Prize in Physics ""for their fundamental work in quantum electrodynamics, with deep ploughing consequences for the physics of elementary particles"".""At Cornell, Feynman perfected his approach to quantum theory, melding several of his prewar insights with the more pragmatic, numbers-driven approach he had honed during the war. One of his first tasks was to publish a long article, based on his dissertation, that presented a brand-new approach to quantum mechanics. Published in 1948 under the title, 'Space-Time Approach to Non-relativistic Quantum Mechanics'"" in the journal Reviews of Modern Physics, his lengthy article focused on the 'Lagrangian' function for a particle, a particular combination of kinetic and potential energy familiar from classical mechanics. The probability that a quantum object would travel from one location, x1, at a time t1, to some other location, x2, at a later time t2, Feynman showed, could be calculated by summing over-that is, integrating-all of the possible paths through space and time that connected these two end points. The contribution of each path to the total would be weighted by its classical Lagrangian function evaluated along that path"" hence, the technique became known as path integrals. The main difference from the standard formalism lay not in outcomes, but in conceptual approach. Werner Heisenberg and Niels Bohr had argued vehemently during the 1920s that quantum mechanics spelled the end for any type of visualization of the atomic domain. Feynman countered with an intuitive approach, built around picturing the paths of particles through space and time. His greatest success [with his Feynman-diagrams] came on the heels of this path-integral approach"" (DSB).""Feynman's two papers on QED [the two present papers] were completed in April and May 1949. In the first one, 'The Theory of Positrons,' he carefully explains the meaning of his diagrams beginning with their application to the Schrödinger equation. Application to the Dirac equation yields an interpretation of the positron in which Dirac's original hole theory is no longer needed. The second paper, 'Space-Time Approach to Quantum Electrodynamics,' contains the Feynman rules and explains their usage. By these rules, computations for specific problems are simplified so much that Schwinger, much later, said: ""Like the silicon chip of more recent years, the Feynman diagram was bringing computation to the masses"""" (Brandt, Harvest of a Century).Dean Everett Wooldridge (1913 - 2006) was a prominent engineer in the aerospace industry.

First printing of the Reviews of Modern Physics issue entirely dedicated to the International Congress on Theoretical Physics held in Seattle, Washington, 1957. The congress turned out to be exceptionally important in the field of superconductivity and Feynman here presented his only paper on the subject even though he spend most of the 1950ies on precisely this. Feynman's work on the subject led directly to Bardeen's focus on the subject which eventually resulted on Bardenn, Leon Cooper, and John Robert Schrieffer published their famous BCS-theory paper in 1957:""John Bardeen, already well-known for his work leading to the discovery of the transistor, turned his full attention to superconductivity in 1951, having realized that the isotope effect identified the interaction between electrons that must be responsible for the phenomenon. The basic idea would be a Fermi-degenerate gas of nearly free electrons, with a weakly attractive interaction by way of the lattice phonons. Solving that problem - for example, finding the ground state of such a system - proved to be a difficult task. There was also the threat of powerful competition. Richard Feynman, one of the masters of quantum electrodynamics, could not help but notice the similarity between that problem and this one. By 1955, by then at the University of Illinois at Urbana, Bardeen decided that reinforcements were needed. He called up C. N. Yang at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, to ask for a postdoc versed in the kind of field theory one uses in quantum electrodynamics. Yang recommended Leon Cooper. At about the same time, one of Bardeen's graduate students, J. Robert Schrieffer, decided to work on superconductivity. The team was assembled. In the cramped quarters of the University of Illinois physics department, Bardeen and Cooper had to share an office, a hardship that did not prove to be an obstacle to progress. The team worked furiously in early 1957, driven in part by the feeling that Feynman was hot on the trail, using powerful new techniques they knew little about. However, it was not Feynman, but Bardeen, Cooper, and Schrieffer who produced the microscopic theory"" (Goodstein, Richard Feynman and the History of Superconductivity).

First printing of three landmark papers, all of seminal importance in history of physics: Feynman's undergraduate thesis at MIT, the intricacies of the fission process, the groundwork for atomic and hydrogen bombs and the forgotten birth of black holes: The first theoretical description of a black hole, the production of a singularity when a sufficiently large neutron star collapses.First printing of ""FORCES IN MOLECULES"" - know known as Feynman-Hellmann theorem - is Feynman's undergraduate thesis at MIT, published when he was just twenty-one, which helped to establish his name in the world of physics. ""This work treated the problem of molecular forces from a thoroughly quantum-mechanical point of view, arriving at a simple means of calculating the energy of a molecular system that continues to guide quantum chemists."" (DSB). ""As Feynman conceived the structure of molecules, forces were the natural ingredients. He saw springlike bonds with varying stiffness, atoms attracting and repelling one another. The usual energy-accounting methods seemed secondhand and euphemistic: [He demonstrated that] the force on an atom's nucleus is no more or less than the electrical force from the surrounding field of charged electrons-the electrostatic force. Once the distribution of charge has been calculated quantum mechanically, then from that point forward quantum mechanics disappears from the picture. The problem becomes classical"" the nuclei can be treated as static points of mass and charge. Feynman's approach applies to all chemical bonds"" (Gleick, The Life and Science of Richard Feynman, P. 54).Oppenheimer and Snyder's ""ON CONTINUED GRAVITATIONAL CONTRACTION"" constitute the very first theoretical prediction of a singularity when a sufficiently large neutron star collapses. This phenomenon was later to be coined as a black hole. ""Had J. Robert Oppenheimer not led the US effort to build the atomic bomb, he might still have been remembered for figuring out how a black hole could form."" (American Physical Society). The paper has by several physics historians been described as the forgotten birth of black holes. ""Oppenheimer and his graduate student George Volkoff presented the first analysis of the formation of a neutron star in a 1939 Physical Review paper titled, ""On Massive Neutron Stars"". Oppenheimer wondered what would happen to a very massive neutron star. The Schwartzschild analysis of General Relativity has a theoretical limit, called the ""Schwartzschild limit"", when the ratio of mass-to-radius of a star is 236,000 times greater than the ratio for our sun. When this limit is exceeded, the Schwartzschild analysis does not yield a solution. Oppenheimer believed that a neutron star could have sufficient mass to exceed this limit. What would happen to it? Oppenheimer and his graduate student Hartland Snyder applied General Relativity theory to a star with sufficient mass and density to exceed the Schwartzschild limit. The Schwartzschild analysis assumed that the size of the star stays constant with time. Oppenheimer and Snyder found that they could achieve a real solution from General Relativity when the Schwartzschild limit is exceeded by assuming that the diameter of the star decreases with time. They presented their analysis in a 1939 Physical Review paper, titled, ""On Continual Gravitational Contraction,"" which concluded with: ""When all thermonuclear sources of energy are exhausted, a sufficiently heavy star will collapse. Unless fission due to rotation, the radiation of mass, or the blowing off of mass by radiation, reduce the star's mass to the order of that of the sun, this contraction will continue indefinitely."" This analysis concluded that when the Schwartzschild limit is exceeded, the star must collapse indefinitely until it reaches a singularity having an infinite density of matter"" (Bjornson, Singularity Predictions of General Relativity, P. 4).The Chandrasekhar / Eddington controvery in the mid 30ies did discuss the fate of neutron stars but the first thoroughly theoretical desciption was first published here. ""THE MECHANISM OF NUCLEAR FISSION"" is the first fully worked out theory of nuclear fission, which laid the groundwork for atomic and hydrogen bombs.""Wheeler's technical mastery of physics is best seen in the classic paper of Bohr and Wheeler. Bohr and Wheeler wrote the paper in Princeton, where Bohr was visiting in the spring of 1939, a few months after the discovery of fission. The paper is a masterpiece of clear thinking and lucid writing. It reveals, at the center of the mystery of fission, a tiny world where everything can be calculated and everything understood. The tiny world is a nucleus of uranium 236, formed when a neutron is freshly captured by a nucleus of uranium 235. The uranium 236 nucleus sits precisely on the border between classical and quantum physics. Seen from the classical point of view, it is a liquid drop composed of a positively charged fluid. The electrostatic force that is trying to split it apart is balanced by the nuclear surface tension that is holding it together. The energy supplied by the captured neutron causes the drop to oscillate in various normal modes that can be calculated classically. Seen from the quantum point of view, the nucleus is a superposition of a variety of quantum states leading to different final outcomes. The final outcome may be a uranium 235 nucleus with a re-emitted neutron, or a uranium 236 nucleus with an emitted gamma-ray, or a pair of fission-fragment nuclei with one or more free neutrons. Bohr and Wheeler calculate the cross-section for fission of uranium 235 by a slow neutron and get the right answer within a factor of two. Their calculation is a marvelous demonstration of the power of classical mechanics and quantum mechanics working together. By studying this process in detail, they show how the complementary views provided by classical and quantum pictures are both essential to the understanding of nature. Without the combined power of classical and quantum concepts, the intricacies of the fission process could never have been understood. Bohr's notion of complementarity is triumphantly vindicated"" (John Archibald Wheeler, Proceedings of the American Philosophical Society 154 (2010)).
