Erwin Schrodinger 1887-1961 Discovery: 1926 []

Erwin Schrödinger was born on August 12, 1887, in Vienna. He went to study physics at the University of Vienna. In 1933, he went to Oxford University. Schrodinger won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1933 for his newly discovered wave equation. Schrodinger was not satisfied with the quantum condition in Bohr’s Orbit Theory and his belief that the Atomic Spectra should really be determined by a different type of equation. Schrodinger worked with light. He experimented with the fact that light moved in waves. He didn’t agree with Niels Bohr and his philosophies about light. Schrodinger came up with his Nobel prize winning “Schrodinger Wave Equation”. []
