Paul Oppenheim
Oppenheim earned his doctorate in chemistry and philosophy.He was a close friend to Albert Einstein as well. "In the 1920s, Oppenheim started to publish on the natural order of the sciences, and this topic continued to occupy him throughout his career.This framework was meant to help elucidate the relationship between these disciplines, and to place notions such as “Gestalt” or “type” within a philosophical reconstruction of the sciences."(Ziche,2013). -
Werner Heisenberg
"Werner Heisenberg discovered the uncertainty principle, which states that the position and the momentum of an object cannot both be known exactly. The combined uncertainty for position and momentum is equal to or greater than h/(4π), where h is Planck’s constant, and thus is significant only for very small objects like atoms or subatomic particles."(Beyler,2020). best known for being a brilliant Quantum Mechanics scientist and Nobel Prize winner in 1932. -
Hans Reichenbach
"Philosopher and educator who was a leading representative of the Vienna Circle and founder of the Berlin school of logical positivism, a movement that viewed logical statements as revealing only the basic structure of a priori mental categories and language. He contributed significantly to logical interpretations of probability theories, theories of induction, and the philosophical bases of science."
