# Tamiaki Yoneya

Tamiaki Yoneya (米谷民明, Yoneya Tamiaki) (born 1947) is a Japanese physicist.
Independently of Joël Scherk and John H. Schwarz, he realized that string theory describes, among other things, the force of gravity. Yoneya has worked on the stringy extension of the uncertainty principle for many years.
