Born, Max (1872–1970)
German theoretical physicist active in the development of quantum mechanics, whose particular contribution was the probabilistic interpretation of the Schrödinger wave equation, thus providing a link between wave mechanics and the quantum theory. He shared the 1954 Nobel Prize for Physics with Walter Bothe, and devoted his later years to the philosophy of physics.
