...visits a Columbia physicist complimented him gracefully on the contrast between his youth and his achievements. Replied Dr. Heisenberg: "You know what they call the new physics in Germany? They call it the 'Boy Physics.' " Werner Heisenberg at 21 had distinguished himself by studies on the Zeeman effect (splitting of spectrum lines when light comes from an electromagnetic field). Independently of the de Broglie wave mechanics, he devised an abstruse mathematical description of electronic behavior which he called "matrix mechanics." He saw the necessity of a wave concept as well as anyone else, but he followed the Newtonian...

...used in this work is furnished by a storage battery recently established in the old engine house at the eastern end of the main building. The whole equipment is as good as any in this country. It is at present employed in a study of the relation of the Zeeman effect to spectral series. The central portion of the basement is devoted to storage and to a number of small research rooms used by Professor Davis and his students. The southwestern part of the same level is occupied by an optical laboratory. In the northwestern portion, Professor Bridgman carries...
