Werner Karl Heisenberg (pronounced [ˈvɛʁnɐ kaʁl ˈhaɪzn̩bɛʁk] ⓘ; 5 December 1901 – 1 February 1976) was a German theoretical physicist, one of the main pioneers of the theory of quantum mechanics, and a principal scientist in the Nazi nuclear weapons program during World War II.He published his Umdeutung paper in 1925, a major reinterpretation of old quantum theory.
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.
Biographical. Werner Heisenberg was born on 5th December, 1901, at Würzburg. He was the son of Dr. August Heisenberg and his wife Annie Wecklein. His father later became Professor of the Middle and Modern Greek languages in the University of Munich. It was probably due to his influence that Heisenberg remarked, when the Japanese physicist ...

Werner Heisenberg - Quantum Physicist, Nobel Prize, Nazi Party: The same year that Heisenberg was awarded a Nobel Prize, 1933, also saw the rise to power of the National Socialist German Workers’ Party (Nazi Party). Nazi policies excluding “non-Aryans” or the politically “unreliable” from the civil service meant the dismissal or resignation of many professors and academics ...

Dec 5, 2023 · Werner Heisenberg (1901-1976) was a German physicist renowned for formulating the uncertainty principle in quantum mechanics. Awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1932, his work laid the foundation for modern quantum theory. Heisenberg also played a key role in developing matrix mechanics, contributing significantly to the understanding of atomic and subatomic phenomena.
Heisenberg at the Juncture Between Old Quantum Theory and Quantum Mechanics Werner Heisenberg was born in Würzburg on December 5, 1901, in a family belonging to the German educated middle class (Bildungsbürgertum), which considered culture as a mean for the cultivation of the self
