Best Answer

During the 1920s Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger (1887-1961) introduced what came to be known as the wave mechanical model, also known as the particle-wave hypothesis.

Who was Schrodinger and what did he call his cat?

He was a physicist that is most known for working with quantum mechanics. Schrodinger's cat was his thought on the uncertaintiness of the modern model of quantum mechanics. The cat was either dead or alive but also neither.


How does the theory of quantum mechanics apply with string theory?

String theory is one of the leading candidates for a theory of everything, that is, a theory that unifies all 4 basic forces of nature, viz, gravity, the electromagnetic force, the strong force and the weak force. The last 3 forces mentioned above are described by quantum mechanics. This is the link between quantum mechanics and string theory. ps- If you believe in watertight definitions, then quantum mechanics is all the quantum theory till Dirac's equation. I'm taking quantum mechanics as the theory of the small as such, that is, all of the phenomena of the small from Plank till the standard model and beyond.

What is sommerfield model?

Sommerfield's model is a semi quantum-mechanics, a classical free electron model. However, it differs from the Drude's model since it is incorporate in a quantum mechanics idea such that : - Only discrete energy levels are allowed for the electron. - Together with the Pauli Exclussion Principle and Fermi-Dirac statistic which deal with the probability of occupancy of the energy states by electron. - The density of available states for the electron occupancy.
