The Young Julian Schwinger. V. Winding Up at the Radiation Lab, Going to Harvard, and Marriage
@article{Mehra1999TheYJ, title={The Young Julian Schwinger. V. Winding Up at the Radiation Lab, Going to Harvard, and Marriage}, author={Jagdish Mehra and Kimball A. Milton and Peter Rembiesa}, journal={Foundations of Physics}, year={1999}, volume={29}, pages={1119-1162} }
In this series of articles the early life and work of the young Julian Schwinger are explored. In the present article, we discuss Schwinger's winding up his work at the MIT Radiation Laboratory, being offered a tenured professorship at Harvard University, getting married, and settling down into a highly productive teaching and research career.
