Schrödinger's famous
wave equation was based on work done by
Louis de Broglie. He shared his Nobel Prize with
Paul Dirac. The classic
Schrodinger's Cat paradox originated in his 1935 paper,
The Present Situation in Quantum Mechanics. Schrödinger also worked on
unified field theory,
general relativity and
meson (particle) physics.
