Discoverer of the exclusion principle, author of the theory of electron spin and the spin–statistics theorem, and proposer of the neutrino.
theoretical physics, quantum mechanics, quantum field theory
Creator of matrix mechanics and the uncertainty principle, who later led the theoretical work of Germany's wartime uranium project.
quantum mechanics, nuclear physics, quantum field theory
English theoretical physicist who gave quantum mechanics its general formulation, wrote the relativistic equation of the electron and predicted antimatter.
quantum mechanics, quantum field theory, mathematical physics
Theoretical physicist and first physicist to win the Fields Medal, whose work on supersymmetry, topological field theory and string theory reshaped geometry and topology.
