jan 1, 1901 - Werner Heisenberg

Description:

German physicist, born in 1901 in Germany, died in 1970 in Germany. He came up with the theory of quantum mechanics and and the principle of uncertainty, which he published at the age of 23. The principle of uncertainty set limits for finding the exact position and velocity of a particle at the same time. His quantum mechanics led to the discovery of multiple forms of hydrogen. He found this based on what he observed and the radiation released by the atom. Facts- Him and other German scientist were taken prisoner by Allied forces after WW2 for helping the Germans come up with nuclear technology.
