Particular attention is paid to J.J. Thomson's atomic modeling and experiments at the Cavendish Laboratory, Max Planck's struggle to explain the experimental results of Heinrich Rubens and Ferdinand Kurlbaum, as well as the path leading from Louis de Broglie?s ideas to the wave theory of Erwin Schrödinger. Combining his experience in teaching quantum mechanics with his interest in the historical roots of the subject, the author has created a valuable resource for understanding quantum physics through its history, and a book that is appreciated both by working physicists and historians. 410 0$aHistory of Physics,$x2730-7549 606 $aQuantum theory$xHistory 615 0$aQuantum theory$xHistory. 676 $a530.1209 700 $aHelrich$b Carl S.$0749354 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996466729103316 996 $aThe quantum theory-- origins and ideas$92834026 997 $aUNISA
