Important Events in Quantum Physics, particularly what led up to the creation of Schrodinger's famous wave equation
-
In his very famous Double Slit experiment, scientist Thomas Young showed that light shows properties of both waves and particles, though his theories/observations weren't widely accepted until much later. The scientists of the time were very fixed on their particle theory of light.
-
French physicists Augustin Fresnel and Francois Arago improved upon and confirmed Young's work.
