Some physicists win Nobels, while others just have great dogs. Who was Stueckelberg, and why did Feynman think he deserved a Nobel? What did he do that was so great? (1/n)pic.twitter.com/mwjOwgePZn

His full name was Baron Ernst Carl Gerlach Stueckelberg von Breidenbach zu Breidenstein und Melsbach. Born in 1905, he was a master of quantum field theory, the first to do many things... but he published in minor journals, so few recognized his greatness until the 1990s.

Here are some things he did: In 1934 he devised a fully Lorentz-invariant perturbation theory for quantum fields. (A big deal.) In 1935 he developed a theory of mesons carrying the nuclear force. (Yukawa won the Nobel for this in 1949.) (3/n)
