Arthur Strong Wightman (March 30, 1922 – January 13, 2013) was an American mathematical physicist. He was one of the founders of the axiomatic approach to quantum field theory, and originated the set of Wightman axioms.[1] With his rigorous treatment of quantum field theories, he promoted research on various aspects of modern mathematical physics.[2]
