THE PHILANDERING PHYSICIST

The Boston Globe (Boston, MA) | March 26, 1990| | Copyright

In the year 1926, his annus mirablis, the Austrian physicist Erwin Schrodinger published four papers laying down the foundations of a new theory of nature, called wave mechanics.

J. Robert Oppenheimer called Schrodinger's theory "perhaps one of the most perfect, most accurate, and most lovely that man has discovered." Einstein saw the work spring from "true genius." Walter Moore, Schrodinger's recent biographer, says flatly of the theory, "There is nothing more beautiful in theoretical physics."

At the heart of the theory is a single equation, universally called Schrodinger's equation, whose ...
