Brief History of Quantum Physics
Quantum physics is the study of sub-atomic particles which theorizes that energy is transmitted partly as particles and partly as waves; hence determining perfect outcomes is next to impossible. Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle and the study of electromagnetic and cosmic rays confirmed this new discovery about the dual nature of energy.
Some of Quantum Physics milestones are presented below:
Milestones
1905 Albert Einstein’s – Particle Nature of Light and Photoelectric Effect
1911 Ernest Rutherford – Positively charged Nucleus is main mass of atom
1913 Niels Bohr – New model for the atom influenced by Planck and Einstein
1923 Louis de Broglie – matter particles should exhibit wave properties
1925 Werner Heisenberg - uncertainty principle
1928 Paul Dirac – Wave equation in operator algebra
1932 Von Neumann – Quantum mechanics in an operator algebra format
Quantum Physics was initially proposed by a group of scientists including Einstein, Max Plack and Niels Bohr in the early 1900’s; but was not fully accepted until 1924 when the hypothesis by Louis de Broglie proposed the matter-wave hypothesis of energy. The study of quantum mechanics was furthered by Wolfgang Pauli, Werner Heisenberg, Paul Dirac and Erwin Schrodinger in the 1920’s. Quantum mechanics disproved that time is a constant as earlier proposed through the Theory of Relativity and added the uncertainty of determining the exact state of an electron in an atom as well as the concept that no electron in an atom can be in the same exact state.
