The Birth of Quantum Mechanics: Setting the Record Straight

New Scientist. Science news and long reads from expert journalists, covering developments in science, technology, health and the environment on the website and the magazine.

The story of the birth of quantum mechanics is often misunderstood, with a common misconception surrounding its origins. While Erwin Schrödinger’s equation on quantum waves is widely known, the true foundation of quantum theory lies in the groundbreaking work of Max Born and his collaborators.

Contrary to popular belief, quantum physics did not emerge as a sudden revelation in a period of presumed scientific clarity. In fact, the late 19th century was marked by profound confusion among physicists regarding fundamental principles.

This article is part of a special series celebrating the 100th anniversary of the birth of quantum theory. Read more here.

This prevailing uncertainty paved the way for Max Planck’s revolutionary equation in 1900, which introduced the concept of Planck’s constant (h) as a fundamental factor in understanding quantum phenomena. This pivotal moment laid the groundwork for the subsequent developments in quantum mechanics.

While Schrödinger’s wave equation remains iconic, it is essential to recognize the foundational contributions of scientists like Max Born in shaping our understanding of quantum reality. By revisiting the historical context of quantum theory’s inception, we can gain a deeper insight into the intricate nature of the quantum world.
