  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. Matrix mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_mechanics

    Heisenberg went on to say that Born and Jordan's contribution to quantum mechanics cannot be changed by "a wrong decision from the outside". [28] In 1954, Heisenberg wrote an article honoring Max Planck for his insight in 1900. In the article, Heisenberg credited Born and Jordan for the final mathematical formulation of matrix mechanics and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_quantum_mechanics

    Building on de Broglie's approach, modern quantum mechanics was born in 1925, when the German physicists Werner Heisenberg, Max Born, and Pascual Jordan [41] [42] developed matrix mechanics and the Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger invented wave mechanics and the non-relativistic Schrödinger equation as an approximation of the generalised ...

  5. Quantum Heisenberg model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_Heisenberg_model

    It is common to name the model depending on the values of , and : if , the model is called the Heisenberg XYZ model; in the case of = = =, it is the Heisenberg XXZ model; if = = =, it is the Heisenberg XXX model. The spin 1/2 Heisenberg model in one dimension may be solved exactly using the Bethe ansatz. [1]

    This became known as the uncertainty principle, a concept first introduced by Werner Heisenberg in 1927. [citation needed] Schrödinger's wave model for hydrogen replaced Bohr's model, with its neat, clearly defined circular orbits. The modern model of the atom describes the

  9. Timeline of quantum mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_quantum_mechanics

    Werner Heisenberg formulates the quantum uncertainty principle. [1] Niels Bohr and Werner Heisenberg develop the Copenhagen interpretation of the probabilistic nature of wavefunctions. Born and J. Robert Oppenheimer introduce the Born–Oppenheimer approximation, which allows the quick approximation of the energy and wavefunctions of smaller ...
