Further Reading
For the historical development of quantum mechanics one can refer to M. Jammer, The Conceptual Development of Quantum Mechanics, McGraw-Hill, New York (1966); B.L. Van Der Waerden, Sources of Quantum Mechanics, North-Holland, Amsterdam (1967); J. Mehra and H. Rechenberg, The Historical Development of Quantum Theory, Springer New York (1982).
For an fascinating introduction to quantum phenomena, see T. Leggett, “Quantum physics: weird and wonderful”, Phys. World, December 1999, p. 73.
Davisson’s interesting story can be found in R.K. Gehrenbeck, Phys. Today 31, January 1978, p. 34.
