  2. Werner Heisenberg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Werner_Heisenberg

    Werner Karl Heisenberg was born in Würzburg, Germany, to Kaspar Ernst August Heisenberg, [6] and his wife, Annie Wecklein. His father was a secondary school teacher of classical languages who became Germany's only ordentlicher Professor (ordinarius professor) of medieval and modern Greek studies in the university system.

  3. Heisenberg's microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heisenberg's_microscope

    Heisenberg's microscope is a thought experiment proposed by Werner Heisenberg that has served as the nucleus of some commonly held ideas about quantum mechanics. In particular, it provides an argument for the uncertainty principle on the basis of the principles of classical optics .

    The book is collection of 1929 university lectures by Heisenberg but with more detailed mathematics. [1] The book discusses quantum mechanics and one 1931 review states that this is a "less technical and less involved account of the theor[y]". [ 2 ]

  5. Matrix mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_mechanics

    In 1925 Werner Heisenberg was working in Göttingen on the problem of calculating the spectral lines of hydrogen. By May 1925 he began trying to describe atomic systems by observables only. On June 7, after weeks of failing to alleviate his hay fever with aspirin and cocaine, [3] Heisenberg left for the pollen-free North Sea island of Helgoland.

    Shortly after the Leipzig L-IV atomic pile—worked on by Werner Heisenberg and Robert Döpel—demonstrated Germany's first signs of neutron propagation, the device was checked for a possible heavy water leak. During the inspection, air leaked in, igniting the uranium powder inside.

  8. Quantum fluctuation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_fluctuation

    3D visualization of quantum fluctuations of the quantum chromodynamics (QCD) vacuum [1]. In quantum physics, a quantum fluctuation (also known as a vacuum state fluctuation or vacuum fluctuation) is the temporary random change in the amount of energy in a point in space, [2] as prescribed by Werner Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

  9. Quantum Heisenberg model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_Heisenberg_model

    The quantum Heisenberg model, developed by Werner Heisenberg, is a statistical mechanical model used in the study of critical points and phase transitions of magnetic systems, in which the spins of the magnetic systems are treated quantum mechanically.
