The quantum revolution of the mid-1920s occurred under the direction of both Einstein and Bohr, and their post-revolutionary debates were about making sense of the change.
Its nice to know we are living in the same kind of time as the quantum revolution of the early 20th century!
From the memoir by Philip Morse: "He contributed significantly to the start of the quantum revolution in physics; he was one of the very few American-trained physicists to do so.
This discovery led to the quantum revolution.
This discovery led to the quantum revolution in physics and earned Einstein the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921.
But to him, even though his own Nobel Prize-winning work was a catalyst for the quantum revolution, the theory was anathema.
Perhaps we will give up materialism and resign ourselves to a ghostly physicality; perhaps there will be a second quantum revolution.
Dirac's version, known as quantum field theory, has been the basis of particle physics ever since, and signifies, in physics histories, the end of the quantum revolution.
Einstein's defection from the quantum revolution was a blow to his more conservative colleagues, but he was not alone.
The reigning idea of the quantum revolution in the early 20th century was that energy was not smooth and continuous but came in discrete packets, the quanta.
