Werner Heisenberg, German physicist and philosopher who discovered (1925) a way to formulate quantum mechanics in terms of matrices. For that discovery, he was awarded the 1932 Nobel Prize for Physics.
The Nobel Prize in Physics 1932 was awarded to Werner Karl Heisenberg "for the creation of quantum mechanics, the application of which has, inter alia, led to the discovery of the allotropic forms of hydrogen"

Heisenberg’s main focus of work in the late 1930s was high-energy cosmic rays, for which he proposed a theory of “explosion showers,” in which multiple particles were produced in a single process, in contrast to the “cascade” theory principally favoured by British and American physicists.
Oct 10, 2018 · Werner Heisenberg won the 1932 Nobel Prize for helping to found the field of quantum mechanics and developing foundational ideas like the Copenhagen interpretation and the uncertainty principle...
Werner Heisenberg’s work laid the groundwork for much of modern quantum mechanics, and his Uncertainty Principle had profound implications for our understanding of the fundamental nature of the physical world. Werner Heisenberg will be remembered as one of the great founders of quantum physics.
Werner Heisenberg (1901-1976) was a German theoretical physicist and 1932 Nobel Prize winner. Heisenberg was a main contributor to the German atomic program during World War II, in direct competition with the Manhattan Project.
