Part of a tweet from the account “Physics in History.” It reads: Happy 136th Birthday to Erwin Schrödinger (b. 1887 - d. 1961), one of the pioneers and titans of Quantum mechanics, and a prolific writer on physics and philosophy. Schrödinger was a brilliant physicist who made significant contributions to the development of quantum mechanics. He is best known for his Schrödinger equation, which is a mathematical formula that relates the wave function of a system to its energy and potential. The wave function is a complex function that describes the probability of finding a particle in a given state or location.
