Der Wiener Physiker Erwin Schrödinger (1887-1961) leistete bahnbrechende Arbeiten zur Wellenmechanik und Quantentheorie, für die er unter anderem mit dem Nobelpreis ausgezeichnet wurde.

He was a genius who gave the world access to technology that is still changing the world. To this day, his greatest accomplishment is the iPhone and still is.
