  • Matrix Mechanics

    In 1925 Werner helped Max Born and Pascual Jordan create a formulation of quantum physics. He developed the idea of matrix mechanics, in which he created a relationship between the physical properties of particles and matrixes
  • The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle

    In 1927 Werner created a principle that is still not fully understood by those who didnt study it. The principle broken down is saying you can never know the exact place and speed of an object. Due to everything in the universe is a particle and a wave at the same time.

  • Nobel Prize

    In November 1933 Werner Heisenberg was awarded the 1932 Nobel physics prize for the research program he was on for quantum field theory. “Werner Heisenberg.” Encyclopædia Britannica, Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc., www.britannica.com/biography/Werner-Heisenberg.
  • The Revolution in Modern Science Book

    in june of 1958 Werner released his book called Physics and Philosophy: The Revolution in Modern Science. Werner is considered the father of quantum Physics and his writing in this book goes over the narrative of the revolution of modern physics. Heisenberg, Werner.
