Erwin Schrödinger was an Austrian physicist known for his work in quantum mechanics. He won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1933 for his formulation of the wave equation, which describes the behavior of subatomic particles.
Born in Vienna, Austria in 1887
Studied at the University of Vienna and later at the University of Zurich
Worked as a professor at various universities in Europe during his career
Contributed significantly to the development of quantum mechanics
Died in Vienna in 1961
Erwin Schrödinger is best known for his formulation of the wave equation, which describes the behavior of subatomic particles. This equation played a significant role in the development of quantum mechanics.
Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment in which a cat is placed in a closed box with a deadly radioactive substance. Based on quantum mechanics, the cat would be both alive and dead until the box is opened and the cat's state is observed, which would collapse the wave function and determine whether the cat is alive or dead.
