Schrödinger's equation marks 100 years of shaping quantum science
Original: 100 years ago, Schrödinger’s equation shed light on quantum physics – scientists use it today to fine-tune chemical reactions
One hundred years after Erwin Schrödinger formulated his famous equation, physicists and chemists are marking the centenary of a breakthrough that underpins modern quantum mechanics. The equation describes how quantum systems evolve, and scientists now use it to model and fine-tune chemical reactions with remarkable precision. Commentators note its enduring influence spans from fundamental physics to practical chemistry, computing and materials science.
Why now: The centenary of the 1926 equation is prompting anniversary coverage of quantum physics' foundational breakthrough.
