Through his encyclopedic study of the electron, an obscure figure named Stefano Laporta found a handle on the subatomic world’s fearsome complexity.
whose mission is to enhance public understanding of science by covering research developments and trends in mathematics and the physical and life sciences.
But Gehrmann needed software just to tally the 35,000 terms in his probability formula. As for computing it? That’s when “you raise the flag of surrender and talk to your colleagues,” he said. Today the reduction procedure, known as the Laporta algorithm, has become the main tool for generating precise predictions about particle behavior. “It’s ubiquitous,” saidWhile the algorithm has spread across the globe, its inventor, Stefano Laporta, remains obscure. He rarely attends conferences and doesn’t command a legion of researchers. “A lot of people just assumed he was dead,” von Hippel said.
After a stint writing software for the Italian military, he returned to Bologna for his doctorate, joining Remiddi in working on a three-loop calculation of the electron’s anomalous magnetic moment, already years in progress.
