Bernard Abram Lippmann.[1][2] (August 18, 1914 – February 12, 1988)[3] was an American theoretical physicist. A former professor of physics at New York University, Lippmann is mainly known for the Lippmann-Schwinger equation, a widely used tool in non-relativistic scattering theory, which he formulated together with his doctoral supervisor Julian Schwinger[4]
