Schrödinger's equation marks 100 years of shaping quantum chemistry
Original: 100 years ago, Schrödinger’s equation shed light on quantum physics – scientists use it today to fine-tune chemical reac
One hundred years after Erwin Schrödinger formulated his famous wave equation, a cornerstone of quantum mechanics, scientists continue to rely on it in practical work. The anniversary is prompting reflection on how the equation underpins modern chemistry, including its use today to model and fine-tune chemical reactions with precise quantum calculations.
Why now: The centenary of the equation's publication is prompting scientists and commentators to revisit its lasting impact on physics and chemistry.
