Schrodinger: He discovered that atoms consist of a nucleus containing protons and neutrons.

Heisenberg: He discovered that atoms are surrounded by cloud-like region of moving electrons, called an electron cloud

Who is Schrodinger and Heisenberg?

Schrödinger and Heisenberg are known to be two of the important founders of quantum mechanics. They both invented a mathematical formalism for quantum mechanics. Schrodinger's formalism which was based on the wave equation was the most popular one. Heisenberg's formalism was based on the notion of quantum jumps (the innate "randomness" of sub-atomic physics the very reason that the famous "Schrodinger's cat" is not alive or dead...). Heisenberg's formalism was innovative but more difficult to handle. The difference on the formalism reflects their different views on the interpretation of quantum mechanics; Schrondinger was more a realist and he was sharing Einstein view that randomness is not desirable in the description of sub-atomic physics. Heisenberg on the other hand was more a supporter of the Copenhagen Interpretation of quantum mechanics which interprets the sub-atomic randomness as an innate characteristic of the sub-atomic world and the very heart of quantum physics theory.


What year did Heisenberg discover the atomic theory?

Werner Heisenberg is considered the creator of quantum mechanics in 1925.


What contributions about modern atom theory did Schrodinger and Heisenberg make?

Erwin Schrödinger developed the Schrödinger equation, which describes the behavior of quantum systems, including atoms. Werner Heisenberg formulated the uncertainty principle, which states that we cannot simultaneously know both the position and momentum of a particle with absolute certainty. Both of these contributions were crucial in the development of modern atomic theory.


What year did Erwin Schrodinger find atomic theory?

he didn't democriths did Dalton did first.


What was Werner Heinsberg's contribution to the atomic theory?

The most important contribution of Werner Heisenberg was the discovery of the uncertainty principle.


The quantum theory of the nuclear atom was developed by whom who used observations of Albert Einstein to formulate his theory?

Schrodinger, who created the schrodinger's cat theory.


What was Hahn's contribution to the atom?

Heisenberg along with Schrodinger formulated Quantum Mechanics, it is the theory that replaces classic Newtonian mechanics in the world of atoms and molecules. Heisenberg also played a significant role in propelling the world into the nuclear age. After the war, German scientists including Heisenberg took credit for diverting the regime from pursuing a bomb, for moral as well as practical reasons.


Founder of the modern atomic theory?

The most commonly seen atomic theory is an amalgamation of the Rutherford and Bohr models, and therefore referred to a the Rutherford-Bohr model(1913) The most modern one is a model formed from theories by Werner Heisenberg and Ernest Schrodinger as well as others and is referred to as the Atomic orbital model(1927), but has been greatly improved on since then


Did Heisenberg thought first about string theory?

no


What year did Werner Heisenberg discover the atomic theory?

bohrs theory holds that each atom consists of a small, dense, positively charged nucleus surrounded by negatively charged electrons that move in fixed, defined orbits about the nucleus, the total number of electrons normally balancing the total positive charge of particles in nucleus.


What about Bohr's atomic theory was partially and was also refined by other scientists?

well an Austrian physicist named Erwin Schrodinger and German physicist name Werner Heisenberg refined Bohr's conclusion that the exact path of an electron cannot be predicted , but there are certain area in an atom that where electrons are likely to be found these are called electron clouds. The part that's right is that they can still move around.
