    WENCA: mas samozrejme pravdu :D


    takze oprava napr. kdyz einstein prisel na jeho prednasku..

    MELOUN: Myslim, ze do Los Alamos ho nepozval Einstein, ale Oppenheimer (vedl projekt Manhattan). Einstein byl prece celkove hodne proti atomovy bombe, pokud se nepletu.

    jen tak me napadlo, vetsinou jsou tu prameny a zdroje od feynmana nebo od nejakych soucasnych autoru o feynmanovi..

    nemate nekdo potuchu co si o nem pomyslel einstein kdyz ho poprve ucil a pote pozval do los alamos, co tam na nej rikal openheimer nebo fermi? co von neumann atd...

    jde mi proste o historky z te druhe strany :D

    Physicists always have a habit of taking the simplest example of any phenomenon and calling it "physics," leaving the more complicated examples to become the concern of other fields...

    An elementary mistake in a sense, but well buried in difficult
    mathematics. The fact is that physicists had never had to pay attention
    to such issues as uniform convergence when changing the order of
    integration. They were always able to argue "this is physical so it must
    be finite". That argument does not apply to the mathematical structure
    of quantum theory. It should have been quickly recognised that it does
    not apply, and the effect of changing the order of integration should
    have been examined. It was one of the things I set out to examine in my
    own thesis, and it has been examined by others before me. I don't think
    there is any excuse for your attitude. For Dyson Feynman and Schwinger
    to do a heuristic calculation to get an answer is fine. But to fail to
    recognise even after the occurrence of divergence that the calculation
    contains a mathematically illegal operation, and fail to analyse the
    effect of that operation, that is not fine. That is plain sloppy and
    mathematically incompetent. To say that "Feynman did it, so it must be
    right" is not science and it is not the way mathematics is done. It is
    necessary to construct the theory and the integrals carefully, and to
    watch things like orders of integration. In the context of these
    calculations, which are quite elaborate, that is much more difficult.
    But there is still no excuse for not doing it. Nor is there any excuse
    for writing down, as Peskin and Schroeder do, expressions equivalent to

    1 + infinity + infinity^2 + ... = 1/(1-infinity) = 0

    The effect of that, combined with the attitude "oh you get the right
    answer so it must be right" together with hostility towards anyone who
    tries to do the maths properly, is the reason why there are very few
    mathematically competent theoretical physicists, and the reason why
    theoretical physics has been stalled for fifty years.

    http://ck12.org/ je jakasi organizace, ktera se snazi vytvorit open source webovy ucebnice, ci co. vyhledal jsem si u nich slovo "feynman" a vypadl na me moc peknej popis dickovo diagramu.
