Schrödinger Ervin: biography and opening of the physicist

Ervin Schrödinger – one of the most famous scientists working in the field of physics. Its works became fundamental for many modern schools of sciences. The approaches developed by Schrödinger formed the basis of modern understanding of many phenomena. Life of this person was not the simplest, however he constantly worked in the scientific environment.

Childhood and youth

Ervin Rudolf Schrödinger was born on August 12, 1887 in Austria. Rudolf, the successful director of the factory specializing in production of linoleum and Georgina - the daughter of the famous chemist Alexander Bauer were his parents. Parents cultivated to Ervin interest in various sciences. Several years getting an education of the house, in eleven years Schrödinger began to study in the Academic gymnasium. The boy always studied best of all in a class, mastering objects without special work. Upon termination of a gymnasium he "perfectly well" passed all examinations and in the fall of 1906 entered the University of Vienna on physical and mathematical faculty.

Formation

At department of physics at it Friedrich Hasenoerl from whom future scientist learned about science problems taught. Schrödinger devoted the dissertation work to studying how the humidity affects properties of various materials. After that he passed into physical institute at the University of Vienna, having become Franz Exner's trainee there. In 1914 to it awarded degree of the privatdozent. In 1921 he for a while went to Zurich where he often went to ski trips and fell in love with classes mountaineering. In a year reported to him about tuberculosis of lungs in this connection to it about nine more months in the small town in the Alps were necessary to receive medical treatment.

Main achievements

During the beginning of World War I, Ervin Schrödinger was called up for military service, and he served on rather quiet sites. When war ended, he was appointed the teacher in officer school. This work left for it a lot of free time, allowing to study scientific problems and to study the corresponding literature. Many remember versatility of interests of Schrödinger: besides physics and chemistry, he was fond also of versification and a sculpture, knew several foreign languages and had extensive knowledge in philosophy.

In 1920 it onzhenitsya on Annemari Bertel. Several years Schrödinger wrote various articles which brought it popularity. It also allowed it to become professor of physics at the Berlin university. In 1933 emuprisudit the Nobel Prize for achievements in physics. In the spring of 1934 Schrödinger's mistress, to Hilda Markh, gave birth to it to the daughter, Georgina. From the official spouse Ervin had no children though they were married until the end of life. In the middle of 1938 they, having spent some time in Switzerland, went to Oxford where they were found by new war, World War II.

He came back to Vienna only in the middle of 1956, having studied the questions uniting in itself(himself) biology and physics for these 16 years. In two years during which the scientist often was ill he retired. On January 4, 1961 he died as a result of strong exacerbation of tuberculosis.
