#Dirac was a strange man who today would probably be diagnosed as being on the #autism spectrum. Tall, gangly and reminiscent of a stick insect, his habit was to work hard all week and on Sundays take long walks in the countryside around Cambridge, where he would climb tall trees dressed in his suit and tie.

'The most magical equation in physics': How Paul Dirac accidentally revealed the strange world of antimatter

"Of all the equations of physics, perhaps the most magical is the Dirac equation."

Assegnata la medaglia Dirac a quattro fisici fondamentali. Medaglia Dirac 2023, l’ICTP di Trieste premia la teoria delle stringhe. Il riconoscimento a quattro studiosi americani per i loro contributi al tentativo di risolvere uno dei maggiori problemi teorici della fisica fondamentale.

I am toiling over Dirac. This balancing on the dizzying path between genius and madness is awful. I don't understand the details of Dirac at all.

In "On the Origin of Time / Stephen Hawking's Final Theory" Thomas Hertog (p63) reports Dirac's reputation for extreme shyness and describes a meeting where Stephen and his wife Jane hosted Paul and his wife for tea and says neither of them said a word. 🤷‍♂️

#PaulDirac formulated relativistic equation for #electron in 1928.
Dirac eq. admits solutions with negative energies and "Dirac sea" was postulated -it is explained very well in George Gamow's "Biography of #Physics" for example-
Anderson discovered #positron in 1932 in cosmic rays.
Antimatter are not particles of negative "mass in rest" because that -for the moment- does not exist
#Positron and electron have same mass at rest 511 keV each
#QuantumElectrodynamics was developed around late 1940s

Richard Feynman’s path integral is both a powerful prediction machine and a philosophy about how the world is. But physicists are still struggling to figure out how to use it, and what it means.
