Werner Heisenberg’s seminal work on quantum theory, published in 1925, represented the dawn of a new era in physics ...

In 1927, Werner Heisenberg was in Denmark working at Niels Bohr's research institute in Copenhagen. The two scientists worked closely on theoretical investigations into quantum theory and the ...

But their ideas fell short of describing a complete theory. It was the German physicist Werner Heisenberg who, in 1925, first put forward a comprehensive version of quantum mechanics. Later that ...

Standard quantum theory as developed by the likes of Niels Bohr and Werner Heisenberg in the 1920s is fine for describing the workings of individual particles in isolation and at slow speeds.

Werner Heisenberg's high school ... Erwin Schrödinger came up with the theory of wave mechanics about a year later. Those uncomfortable with Heisenberg's system jumped on the wave mechanics ...

Quantum physics underlies technologies from the laser to the smartphone. The International Year of Quantum marks a century of scientific developments.

What is quantum physics? Put simply, it’s the physics that explains how everything works: the best description we have of the nature of the particles that make up matter and the forces with ...

we celebrate the 100th anniversary of Werner Heisenberg’s trip to the North Sea island of Helgoland, where he developed the first formulation of quantum theory. Listen to the podcast as we delve into ...

Seventy years ago, Werner Heisenberg wrote a paper with his student ... medium — for light in an optic fibre, for example. In quantum theory, in effect, the vacuum is also a 'medium', as we ...

This year marks the 100th anniversary of Werner Heisenberg’s work in quantum ... These include a national online webinar on quantum theory, the first-ever Quantum Information Conference in ...
