About Erwin Schrödinger :

Erwin Schrodinger or Erwin Schrödinger was an Austrian-Irish quantum physicist who won the Nobel Prize for developing a number of fundamental results in quantum theory: The Schrödinger equation helps to calculate the wave function of a system and how it changes dynamically with time. He was born on 12 August 1887 and died on 4 January 1961.

Schrödinger’s Cat

Schrödinger’s Cat:

It is the world’s most popular thought experiment. Erwin Schrödinger explains how a cat in a box could be in an uncertain predicament and which illustrates a paradox of quantum superposition. According to the rules of quantum theory, The cat could be both dead and alive until the box was opened and the cat’s state measured.

Inventions of Erwin Schrödinger:

  1. Erwin Schrödinger developed a wave equation that accurately calculated the energy levels of electrons in atoms.
  2. Erwin Schrödinger is mostly famous for the Schrödinger equation, which describes the evolution of the wave function, a quantity that describes the wave properties of a particle.
  3. Erwin Schrödinger conducted groundbreaking work in quantum mechanics, and electron movement and invented Schrödinger’s Cat thought.

4. We must not wait for things to come, believing that they are decided by rescindable destiny. If we want it, we must do something about it. – Erwin Schrodinger

11. Consciousness is a singular for which there is no plural. – Erwin Schrodinger

12. The world is a construct of our sensations, perceptions, and memories. It is convenient to regard it as existing objectively on its own. But it certainly does not become manifest by its mere existence. – Erwin Schrodinger

13. I know not whence I came, nor whither I go, nor who I am. –  Erwin Schrodinger  

14. The essential feature of statistics is a prudent and systematic ignoring of details. – Erwin Schrodinger
