This man proposed a method of detecting gravitational waves by placing a bead on a stick and allowing the back-and-forth motion of the bead to generate heat. One formalism developed by this man stated that weighting each trajectory of a particle by the action and summing over all possible trajectories gives the quantum (*) amplitude of a given process. With Schwinger and Tomonaga, this man developed an extremely accurate theory which describes the electromagnetic force as due to photon exchange; that theory is QED. He also names a construct that uses straight and squiggly lines to describe particle decay and scattering. For 10 points, name this American theoretical physicist whose namesake d
