    Werner Karl Heisenberg (December 5 1901-1 February 1976)
    Werner Karl Heisenberg was born in Wurzburg Bavaria, Germany in 1901. He received his doctrine from Munich after studying physics and mathematics from 1920 to 1923. He wrote six hundred original research papers, philosophic essays, and explanations for the general audience throughout his lifetime.

    Heisenberg’s name is always associated with his theory of quantum mechanics. In 1927 his paper was submitted on the uncertainty principle for publication. Unlike previous beliefs, Heisenberg’s theory found that you could never actually know a particle's exact position and momentum at the same time. This discovery won Heisenberg the Nobel Prize in 1932 and declared the quantum revolution complete. https://www.aps.org/publications/apsnews/200802/physicshistory.cfm

    Heisenberg formulated the quantum theory of ferromagnetism which is the neutron-proton model of the nucleus. He used the concept of spin and the exclusion principle created by Wolfgang Pauli to discover a ground state in which all the spins of the electrons lined up in parallel. https://www.nature.com/articles/milespin05

    In 1932 Heisenberg wrote a paper titled "Theoretische Oberlegungen zur Hohenstrahlung" or in English "Theoretical considerations on cosmic radiation" discussing his findings on the cosmic ray. In this paper, he created the theory of explosion showers. In contrast to the cascade theory, he proposed multiple particles were produced in a single process.

    Werner Karl Heisenberg (December 5 1901-1 February 1976)
    Heisenberg developed the S-matrix theory which gave an understanding of strong interactions and their scattering properties. Originally John Wheeler introduced the S-matrix, later Heisenberg was motivated to continue the study after the changes in the quantum field theory. His goal was to isolate the essential features of the theory and by doing so he discovered a unitary characteristic S-matrix. https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/bfm%3A978-3-642-70078-1%2F6%2F1.pdf
