Who is the most intelligent individual ever in his or her's field of study? Not necessarily prolific, but possessing capabilities far above the rest.
Von Neumann has my vote for mathematics, or perhaps Ramunjan. The latter's ability to self-teach is unparalleled, and the former was unbelievably adept at multiple fields.
I think Minchio Kaku for physics
intelligence is unquantifiable. they are the same intelligence as we are.
calling them intelligent has no scientific basis aside from the arbitrary labels you make up which are subjective opinions and no more

Probably some random molecules and stuff spread throughout the atmosphere and in some organisms and the dirt. Give them time, they can do it.
Assuming the universe is infinite, there are infinitely many "most intelligent individuals" in their respective fields of study throughout the universe
Your question means nothing

Ramanujan was a God who had transcended beyond mathematics. That's not to say Von Neumann wasn't good at math as well but definitely nothing on the order of Ramanujan.
The man literally came up with a theorem in his dreams that was confirmed by computer just a few years ago.

Christopher Langan for Reality Theory.

Capitalized God is a proper name, referring explicitly to the Abramahic god. Lowercase god is used for the generic, such as the Greek gods. The creator of the universe is God, and Zeus is the god of sky and thunder.
Leonardo Da Vinci - every field :^)
