Education

Hardships, Awards and accomplishments

Most people go through hardships including Erwin Schrodinger. Erwin was a little older, almost a full ten years older than most of his fellow physicists who had made a big discovery, which put him down a bit. Erwin made his discovery in his mid-late 30s meanwhile others in their early-mid 20s

Hardships & Awards

More

Erwin was accomplished, he won the Nobel Prize for physics in 1933 which he shared with British physicist P.A.M. Dirac. He also created “My View of the World” and “Nature and the Greeks” articles.

He contributed the wave theory and other fundamentals to quantum mechanics.

He had a cat named Milton, and according to Wikipedia Milton died from a flask of poison being shattered, there is still no proof he died.

About the Schrodinger equation: it predicts the future behavior of a dynamic system and plays the role of Newton's laws and conservation of energy. It is a wave equation in terms of the wave-function which predicts analytically and precisely the probability of certain events or outcomes.
