When Schrodinger applied his mathematical formulae to the permitted states of an electron in a hydrogen atom, he found they perfectly matched the Bohr Model, which had perfectly predicted hydrogen spectral lines. For Schrondinger, that was good enough for him to publish his work. Max Born later showed that the Schrodinger Equation could be used to accurately predict particle scattering from a nucleus. However, Born showed that this would only work if one assumes that the cross-product of Schrodinger's Wave Function represents the probability of a point charge being in a specific place; something that Schrodinger never accepted.

How did Erwin Schrodinger achieve quantum mechanics?

Erwin Schrodinger developed a wave equation, known as the Schrodinger equation, that describes how the quantum state of a physical system changes over time. This equation is a fundamental tool in quantum mechanics, providing a mathematical framework for predicting the behavior of particles at the quantum level. Schrodinger's work was crucial in the development of quantum mechanics as a coherent and successful theory.
