Drawing on unique material from the Nobel Prize Archive, accessible only to a very limited number of researchers, this book uncovers how the biggest breakthroughs in quantum physics were evaluated, debated, challenged, and ultimately recognized.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom the earliest discoveries of wave-particle duality and the structure of the atom, the formulation of quantum mechanics by Heisenberg, Schrödinger and Dirac to the surprising phenomena of antiparticles, to the discovery and application of fundamental symmetry principles, each chapter combines clear explanations with historical depth. The book brings to life the scientists behind the discoveries - their ideas, their arguments, their doubts, and their moments of brilliance - revealing not only what they discovered, but how the Nobel system shaped the development of quantum theory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten for both the general reader and for specialists in physics, Quantum Mechanics through Nobel blends narrative science writing with carefully researched archival insights. Readers gain a rare behind-the-scenes understanding of how Nobel committees evaluated groundbreaking work, why some discoveries were rewarded immediately while others waited decades, and how the prize itself influenced the evolution of modern physics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is quantum mechanics told through its pivotal moments - a story of ideas, people, controversies, and the intense scientific creativity that defined an era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Larsson Mats\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9819828988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789819828982\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Scientific Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/19\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.89lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Larsson Mats","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":50546484642047,"sku":"9789819828982","price":48.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_42f010a8-158b-40f5-b3e3-12e0dc4c7961.jpg?v=1790537520","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/quantum-mechanics-through-nobel-larsson-mats-9789819828982","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
