Vladimir Jurko Glaser (
April 21 ,1924 -January 22 ,1984 ) was atheoretical physicist working onquantum field theory and the canonization of the analyticS-matrix .He was head of the Department of Theoretical Physics at the
Ruđer Bošković Institute inZagreb .In 1955, he published one of the first monographs on
Quantum Electrodynamics , "Kovarijantna kvantna elektrodinamika" (in Croatian).In 1957 he left Croatia since he found permanent employment at the Department of Theoretical Physics of
CERN ,Geneva .Together with
Henri Epstein , he found a new approach torenormalization theory (causal perturbation theory ), whereultraviolet divergence s are avoided in the calculation ofFeynman diagrams by using mathematically well-defined quantities only.External links
