This is how Heisenberg created quantum mechanics: step-by-step guide #SoME4

This is a step-by-step guide into Heisenberg’s famous «Umdeutung paper» in which he created quantum mechanics in 1925. I include the experimental reason for the need of matrices, a deep dive into the four key ideas of Heisenberg’s paper, and a detailed worked-out example showing how zero-point energy naturally appears in Heisenberg’s theory thanks to …
