Today (January 4, 1961) is the Nobel Prize-winning Erwin Schrdinger Memorial Day, which revolutionized the Schrödinger wave equation in quantum mechanics.

Today (January 4, 1961) is the Nobel Prize-winning Erwin Schrdinger Memorial Day, which revolutionized the Schrödinger wave equation in quantum mechanics.

 

Erwin Schrödinger was born on August 12, 1887, in Vienna, Austria. His father was Rudolf Schrdinger, and his mother was Georgine Emilia Brenda. The mother was born in a mixture of Austrian and English. He learned both English and German at the same time, as Schrdinger spoke at home. In 1898 he attended the Academies Gymnasium. Between 1906 and 1910 he was educated in Vienna under "Francois Seraphin Exner" and "Friedrich Hasanorl". He also co-authored experiments with Friedrich Colerauss. In 1911 he became an assistant to Exxon. In his early days, Schrödinger did several experiments in the fields of electrical engineering, atmospheric electricity, and atmospheric radiology, but he always worked with his former teacher, Franz Edner. He also studied the theory of vibration, the theory of Brownian motion, and mathematical statistics.

 

In 1912, at the request of the authors of a book on electricity and magnetism, he wrote an article entitled Bipolar Electrochemistry. In the same year, Schrödinger gave a theoretical estimate of the possible elevation distribution of radioactive material, which was necessary to explain the observed radioactivity of the atmosphere, and in August 1913 conducted several experiments at Gehm, confirming his theoretical assessment and the claim of Victor Franz Hess. For these experiments, Schrdinger was awarded the 1920 Heidinger Prize by the Austrian Academy of Sciences. In 1914 the young researcher experimented with pressure formulas in gas bubbles and studied the soft beta-radiation properties that appear when gamma rays fall on a metal surface. Finally, in 1919, along with his friend Fritz Goldrasick, Schrödinger performed his last physical experiment on coherent light and then focused on theoretical studies.

In the first year of his early research career, Schrödinger introduced himself to quantum theory by reading and studying the research of Max Planck, Albert Einstein, Niles War, Arnold Somerfield, and others. Knowledge of this quantum helped to work on some of the problems in theoretical physics. But at that time the Austrian scientist Schrdinger was not yet ready for traditional physics. Schrödinger's first publications on atomic theory and spectral theory appeared in the early 1920s, after a personal acquaintance with Somerfield and Wolfgang Pauly, he moved to Germany. In January 1921, Schrödinger concluded his first paper on the structure of the Bor-Somerfield effect on the properties of the spectrum caused by the collision of electrons in alkali metals.

His particular interest in the theory of relativity led him to become interested in quantum theory. In the autumn of 1922, he analyzed the electron orbits in a nucleus using methods developed by the mathematician Herman Weil. This study helped to understand the geometric properties of quantum orbits and the properties of wave dynamics. In the same year, he developed the Schrödinger equation of the relative Doppler effects for spectral lines. This equation is based on the quantum of light and the concepts of energy and speed. He liked the author's Eichner's view of the statistical nature of security law. So he wrote the Niles War, Hans Kramers and John C. Slaughter eagerly accepted the articles. This suggested the possibility of violating these laws in individual nuclear processes (e.g., in the process of radiation emission).

 

Although the experiments of Hans Geiger and Walter soon became suspicious, the idea of ​​energy as a statistical concept fascinated Schrödinger for a lifetime, which he discussed through some reports and publications. On April 6, 1920, he married Annemarie (Annie) Bertley. Schrdinger suffered from tuberculosis. He stayed at a health home in Aroza several times during the 1920s. That’s where he developed his wave equation. In January 1926, Schrödinger published a paper on wave mechanics entitled "Quantumization is an Egan Value Problem" in the scientific journal "Annalen de Physics" for physics. Now given that the Schrödinger equation. In this article, he gave a "classification" of the wave equation for time (non-time) systems. It gave the exact energy egon values ​​for atom-like hydrogen. This article is celebrated worldwide as one of the most important achievements of the twentieth century. And has created a revolution in most quantum mechanics and indeed in physics and chemistry.

The second article (paper) was submitted four weeks later. In which he gave results for the problem of quantum uniform oscillation, solid vortex and two atomic molecular problems. Schrödinger also gave a new classification for the equation. A third paper, published in May, provided the equation for Heisenberg's approach and the results for the Stark effect. In the fourth paper in this series, he explained how to deal with time-changing issues similar to the ones scattered around. In this paper, he also introduced a complex solution to the wave equation to prevent the occurrence of fourth and sixth order difference equations.

 

He is best known for his contribution to quantum mechanics. He was also awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1933 for his development of the Schrdinger equation. He has received the Max Planck Medal (1937), the Erwin Schrdinger Prize of the Austrian Academy of Sciences (1956), and the Austrian Decoration Award for Science and Art (1957). In 1949 he was elected a foreign member of the Royal Society (ForMemRS). Erwin Schrdinger, who revolutionized the Schrödinger wave equation, passed away on January 4, 1961, at the age of 73 in Vienna, Austria.
