Pauli said, "Festkörperphysik ist eine Schmutzphysik"—solid-state physics is the physics of dirt. [24] Pauli was elected a Foreign Member of the Royal Society (ForMemRS) in 1953 and president of the Swiss Physical Society in 1955 for two years. [1] In 1958 he became a foreign member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences. [25]
Richard Phillips Feynman (/ ˈ f aɪ n m ə n /; May 11, 1918 – February 15, 1988) was an American theoretical physicist.He is best known for his work in the path integral formulation of quantum mechanics, the theory of quantum electrodynamics, the physics of the superfluidity of supercooled liquid helium, and in particle physics, for which he proposed the parton model.
