About this episode
The episode discusses Heisenberg's development of matrix mechanics while on the beach in Helgoland.
Pauli’s friend Heisenberg went to Helgoland because of hay fever. He sat on the beach to watch the sun rise and came up with a new mechanics of matrices. He claimed that energy levels do Not exist and we should only deal with observables. However, the maths was very peculiar. 前往小宇宙评论区与主播互动
