Max Born was born in Breslau on the 11th December, 1882, to Professor Gustav Born, anatomist and embryologist, and his wife Margarete, Kauffmann, who was a member of a Silesian family of industrialists. for his work on the stability of elastic wires and tapes in 1906, and graduated at this university a year later on the basis of this work. Born next went to Cambridge for a short time, to study under Larmor and J.J. Thomson An appointment as professor (extraordinarius) to assist Max Planck at Berlin University came to Born in 1915 but he had to join the German Armed Forces. In a scientific office of the army he worked on the theory of sound ranging. He found time also to study the theory of crystals, and published his first book, Dynamik der Kristallgitter At the conclusion of the First World War, in 1919, Born was appointed Professor at the University of Frankfurt-on-Main , where a laboratory was put at his disposal. His assistant was

Max Born Max Born published a paper in 1924 entitled "Zur Quantummechanik", and this marked the first time that the phrase "Quantum Mechanics" was ever used. He hired Heisenberg and Pascaul Jordan to come and work for him on these problems and it was this fruitful triad that put Heisenberg's ideas into their most useful form. But Born's most memorable contribution concerns the way in which we are to regard quantum mechanics. What is this wavefunction? What does it mean? Born suggested that the only observable aspect of the wavefunction was its square, not the wavefunction itself. He held that the correct interpretation of the wavefunction was that the square at a given point in space was proportional to the probability of finding the particle at that point in space. The square is called the probability density while we can call the wavefunction is probability amplitude. Author: Dan Thomas email: Last Updated: Friday, July 5, 1996

He showed little promise at school and in particular he showed more interest in the humanities than in the sciences. Entering the University of Breslau in 1901 he took a wide range of science subjects, mainly to go along with his father's wishes (his father had died shortly before Max left school). Max's favourite subjects from the ones he studied were mathematics and astronomy and he thought of specialising in astronomy. He spent 1902 in Heidelberg, then 1903 at Zurich. In Zurich he attended his first course on advanced mathematics, a course by Hurwitz on elliptic functions Back in Breslau he talked to his fellow students Toeplitz and Hellinger who told him of the great teachers of mathematics, Klein Hilbert and Minkowski Hilbert and Minkowski He became Hilbert 's assistant in 1905, continuing to attend lectures by

Before he began his studies he discussed the prospects of research in physics with Philipp von Jolly, the professor of physics there, and was told that physics was essentially a complete science with little prospect of further developments. Fortunately Planck decided to study physics despite the bleak future for research that was presented to him. In [7] Planck describes why he chose physics:- The outside world is something independent from man, something absolute, and the quest for the laws which apply to this absolute appeared to me as the most sublime scientific pursuit in life. Planck then studied at Berlin where his teachers included Helmholtz and Kirchhoff . He later wrote that he admired Kirchhoff greatly but found him dry and monotonous as a teacher. Planck returned to Munich and received his doctorate at the age of 21 with a thesis on the second law of thermodynamics. He was then appointed to a teaching post at the University of Munich in 1880 and he taught there until 1885.

Prior to World War II, it was common for many of these individuals to collaborate on some of the most important discoveries of the time. However, when Hitler rose to power in the early 30's, many of those deemed "non-Aryan" made their way to America and played a prominent role in the Manhattan Project. In retrospect, these early policies sowed the "seeds of defeat" for Nazi Germany. Those names hi-lighted in GRAY worked on the Manhattan Project.

Max attended the König Wilhelm's Gymnasium in Breslau and continued his studies at the Universities of Breslau (where the well-known mathematician Rosanes introduced him to matrix calculus), Heidelberg, Zurich (here he was deeply impressed by Hurwitz's lectures on higher analysis), and Göttingen. In the latter seat of learning he read mathematics chiefly, sitting under Klein, Hilbert, Minkowski, and Runge, but also studied astronomy under Schwarzschild, and physics under Voigt. He was awarded the Prize of the Philosophical Faculty of the University of Göttingen for his work on the stability of elastic wires and tapes in 1906, and graduated at this university a year later on the basis of this work.

T. Rex's Guide to Life Essays Scientific Biography Max Born Renowned physicist Max Born was born in 1882 in Breslau, Germany. His father, Gustav, was a member of the medical faculty at the local university who made a meager salary. Born's grandfather, however, was a very successful textile industrialist, who owned a number of houses and apartment buildings throughout town. In one of these houses is where Born was raised. Born's mother died when he was four years old and the only memories of his mother that he carried with him throughout his life were second-hand. He had a sister, Kathe and the two of them were raised mostly by servants. The two siblings led a rather shut-life in which their only other companions were there cousins and the servants who raised them. Born was a rather sickly child, but in his own words "We were certainly rather spoilt children." (1) Every summer, Born and his sister traveled to their summer home in the village of Tannhausen, which was near the river Weistritz. The children would spend their summers playing in the large park that surrounded their summer home and riding the many horses in the stable their grandfather owned. Born referred to this summer home as "the really great paradise" of his childhood. (2) Because he suffered from bronchitis, Born began his schooling at home and continued studying at home for his first year. He then attended Wankel's Knabenschule for the next two years. Born went to high school at the Konigliches Konig Wilhelms-Gymnasium. Here the main subjects were Latin and Mathematics. Latin was not a favorite subject of Born's, he later reflected that the subject was taught in an excessive manner, considering the lack of use it would provide him later in life. The mathematics that were taught to him sparked no particular interest, in fact he often found them boring.
