The source confirms Christian Schafmeister received the 2005 Feynman Prize for experimental work, and confirms the date as 2005. However, it contradicts the grantee list: Christopher Levins received a different award (Foresight Distinguished Student Award), not the Feynman Prize for Experiment. The source does not mention the amount (5000) or the funder identifier 'NPPTvNqRXA'. The record incorrectly pairs Levins with Schafmeister as co-recipients of the experimental Feynman Prize.
