  2. Werner Heisenberg (born December 5, 1901, Würzburg, Germany—died February 1, 1976, Munich, West Germany) was a German physicist and philosopher who discovered (1925) a way to formulate quantum mechanics in terms of matrices. For that discovery, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics for 1932.

  5. Dec 4, 2015 · Werner Karl Heisenberg was a German Theoretical Physicist who studied quantum mechanics (not to be confused with the drug mastermind from Albuquerque). He is best known for his Uncertainty Principle, which describes the fundamental limit to the accuracy of which the momentum and position of a particle can be measured.

  6. W ERNER H EISENBERG. The development of quantum mechanics. Nobel Lecture, December 11, 1933. Quantum mechanics, on which I am to speak here, arose, in its formal con-tent, from the endeavour to expand Bohr’s principle of correspondence to a complete mathematical scheme by refining his assertions.

  7. Werner Heisenberg was a German theoretical physicist famous for his uncertainty principle and his work on nuclear fission.
