Feynman after 40

COFFEE_KLATCH · Invited

Abstract

Richard Feynman won the Nobel Prize for his seminal contributions to quantum electrodynamics during the 1940s, but he also made many enduring contributions later in life to science and science communication. I'll focus on Feynman's activities after age 40, emphasizing in particular The Feynman Lectures on Physics and his visionary ideas about quantum computation.
