Difference between Field (physics) and John Archibald Wheeler

Field (physics) vs. John Archibald Wheeler

In physics, a field is a physical quantity, represented by a number or tensor, that has a value for each point in space and time. John Archibald Wheeler (July 9, 1911 – April 13, 2008) was an American theoretical physicist.
