    Erwin Schrödinger
    Erwin Rudolf Josef Alexander Schrödinger was born in Vienna on August 12, 1887.
    He was son of Rudolf Schrödinger and Georgine Emilia Brenda, his father was a
    botanist and was also a great influence in the life of his son. Later, in 1898, he
    entered one of the best secondary schools of the Germanic Empire, having very
    good grades in all subjects. Schrödinger obtained his doctorate studying with
    Hasenöhrl.
    Then, in 1913, he asked for his Privatdozent and having fulfilled the requirements,
    in early 1914 his request was granted, but before he could teach, he was sent as an
    artillery officer to relatively quiet areas during the First World War.
    In 1918 he returned to Vienna where he was offered a job, but due to the conditions
    of the country he was inclined to refuse, in 1920 he went to work at the University of
    Jena and married with Annemarie Bertel. Then, in 1926, Schrödinger wrote his
    theory on Wave Mechanics, which would become the current The Schrödinger
    Equation. This theory would give him enough recognition hence, in 1927, he began
    to work at the University of Berlin, a university where he would find friends who did
    no recognize the Copenhagen Interpretation (Schrödinger helped with the creation
    of Copenhagen Interpretation, but later he would regret this) either among whom are
    Albert Einstein, Max Planck, Max Von Laue, etc.
    However, in 1933 with the arrival of Hitler to power and Schrödinger disagreements
    with Nazism, he decided leave Germany, getting this job in Oxford. Site where he
    would feel satisfied for disagreements of interests and lack of freedom. In this same
    year Schrödinger won his Nobel Prize for his theory on wave mechanics. Later, in
    1935, due to his correspondence with Einstein, he was led to create a mental game
    to illustrate the problems of the Copenhagen Interpretation, which would come to be
    known as Schrödinger’s cat.
    Unfortunately, in 1936 he returned to Austria and, in 1938, with the annexation of
    Austria by Nazi Germany and Schrödinger’s escape from Berlin, he was forced to
    write a statement where he supported Nazism. After fleeing to fascist Italy and
    arriving in Ireland through his relationship with the Prime Minister of Ireland
    (Schrödinger would live 17 years in Ireland).
    In 1944 he published “What is life?”, a book that would be the inspiration for James
    Watson, discoverer of the double helix structure of DNA.
    Finally, in 1955 he would return to Vienna and die on January 4, 1961 from
    tuberculosis.
    In 1983 the Bank of Austria issued a 1000 shillings bill dedicated to Schrödinger.
    Talking a little more about his life, he very much enjoyed with the luxuries of Vienna,
    such as the theater, opera and music, also during his military stay, being so long in
    the mountains, he began to love nature. He had a free union with his wife which
    made him quite a womanizer, even during his stay at Oxford he had 2 wives. He also
    He even got students pregnant and the wife of a colleague.
