Heisenberg (Werner) Über quantentheoretische Umdeutung kinematischer und mechanischer Beziehungen, first edition, in Zeitschrift fur Physik, Berlin, 1925.
Estimate: £1,200 - 1,800
Description
Heisenberg (Werner) Über quantentheoretische Umdeutung kinematischer und mechanischer Beziehungen, first edition, in Zeitschrift fur Physik, vol.33, pp. 879-893, some earlier leaves in volume repaired at inner margin, original cloth-backed marbled boards, preserved in calf-edged cloth slip-case, 8vo, Berlin, 1925.
⁂ The discovery of matrix mechanics - the cornerstone text of quantum physics. Heisenberg here exchanges the electron orbits of Bohr's model of the atom with a model that interpreted the physical properties of particles in the form of matrices. Heisenberg was awarded the Nobel prize in physics in 1932 for this paper.
