Explore the key moments in the history of quantum theory, from the early ideas of Albert Einstein and Werner Heisenberg to ...

Schrodinger’s mathematical work was able to make the same predictions as Heisenberg’s model, making them different but equivalent representations of the behaviour of electrons. For Einstein, ...

1925 On the windswept island of Helgoland, Werner Heisenberg carries out a calculation that treats the electron’s characteristics not as single values, but as tables of values. In this ...

Scientists at Valis Corporation have demonstrated gravitationally induced wavefunction collapse on an IBM Eagle quantum chip and will present their findings at Deep Tech Week, New York. Their results ...

And that illustrates the core problem the world faces—uncertainty. The title of this column suggests a disquisition on Heisenberg or a look at Schrödinger’s cat, but I’m not sufficiently erudite for ...

When the Universe bends too much – technically above the Heisenberg uncertainty limit – it snaps to one or other configuration, and the cat lives or dies. One of the features of the Penrose ...
