View full profile →

Shinichiro Tomonaga (1906–1979) was a Japanese physicist who independently developed the theory of quantum electrodynamics (QED), for which he shared the 1965 Nobel Prize in Physics with Richard Feynman and Julian Schwinger. He also made foundational contributions to the Tomonaga–Luttinger liquid theory and the study of mesons, and was a key figure in post-war Japanese physics.
