As late as April 1925, Heisenberg wrote that in “the present state of quantum theory, one must rely on symbolic, model-like pictures that are more or less built on the mechanical behaviour of ...

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 ...

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

Philip Ball looks at how a little-known paper by Niels Bohr demonstrates the turmoil in physics on the brink of quantum ...

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 side. The conflict between the theories ...

The Heisenberg uncertainty principle says that we cannot know both the position and the momentum of a particle at once Imagine driving a car fitted with a GPS navigation system that glitches ...

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.

Here's everything you need to know. Is the new Breaking Bad Heisenberg (2024) poster real or fake? The new Heisenberg Break ...
