sep 15, 1859 - Erwin Schrodinger and Werner Heisenberg

Description:

Erwin Schrodinger was born in Vienna in 1887. In 1826 Erwin made the electron "cloud" structure. He created an equation (Schrodinger wave equation) that helps explain the movement of the electrons.
Werner Heisenberg was born is Wurzburg is 1901. In 1926, when he was 26, he used a microscope to measure the momentum from an electron. This helped to get closer to find out what an atom is. Schrodinger used mathematical equations to describe the likelihood of finding an electron in a certain position.
