Werner Heisenberg
• And recently (1964) of the University of Budapest; he is also recipient of the Order of Merit of Bavaria, and the Grand Cross for Federal Services with Star (Germany).
• His theory of quantum mechanics was published in 1925, when he was only 23 years old.

Uncertainty Principle
• The principle that the momentum and position of a particle cannot both be precisely determined at the same time.
• A quantum particle can never be in a state of rest, as this would mean we know both its position and momentum precisely.

Uncertainty Principle Continue…
• Uncertainty principle derives from the measurement problem, the intimate connection between the wave and particle nature of quantum objects.
• The change in a velocity of a particle becomes more ill defined as the wave function is confined to a smaller region.

Uncertainty Principle Continue….
• The birth of quantum mechanics is intimately linked with the theories and discoveries relating to the nature of light.
• In laymen's terms it basically means when you measure an atom for position, you cannot find its velocity, but when you measure its velocity you cannot find its position.
