Person:
Werner Karl Heisenberg (* 5. Dezember 1901 in Würzburg; † 1. Februar 1976 in München) war ein deutscher Wissenschaftler und Nobelpreisträger, der zu den bedeutendsten Physikern des 20. Jahrhunderts zählt. Er gab 1925 die erste mathematische Formulierung der Quantenmechanik an und formulierte 1927 die nach ihm benannte Heisenbergsche Unschärferelation, die eine der fundamentalen Aussagen der Quantenmechanik trifft – nämlich, dass bestimmte Messgrößen eines Teilchens (etwa sein Ort und Impuls) nicht gleichzeitig beliebig genau bestimmt sind. Für die Begründung der Quantenmechanik wurde er 1932 mit dem Nobelpreis für Physik ausgezeichnet.

Place:
The Werner-Heisenberg-Gymnasium in Neuwied is a Grammar School, which goes back to the Latin City and State School of the county Wied founded 1707th Named the school since 1972 by the physicist Werner Heisenberg.

Person:
Werner Karl Heisenberg (5 December 1901 – 1 February 1976) was a German theoretical physicist and one of the key pioneers of quantum mechanics. He published his work in 1925 in a breakthrough paper. In the subsequent series of papers with Max Born and Pascual Jordan, during the same year, this matrix formulation of quantum mechanics was substantially elaborated. In 1927 he published his uncertainty principle, upon which he built his philosophy and for which he is best known. Heisenberg was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for 1932 "for the creation of quantum mechanics". He also made important contributions to the theories of the hydrodynamics of turbulent flows, the atomic nucleus, ferromagnetism, cosmic rays, and subatomic particles, and he was instrumental in planning the first West German nuclear reactor at Karlsruhe, together with a research reactor in Munich, in 1957. Considerable controversy surrounds his work on atomic research during World War II.
