Abstract
The purpose of this communication is not to give a report on the present status of quantum mechanics. Such a report has recently been published by W. Heisenberg, the founder of the new theory (Die Naturwissenschaften, 45, 989, 1926). Here we shall make an attempt to understand the physical significance of the quantum theoretical formulae.
Extension of a paper read before Section A (Mathematics and Physics) of the British Association at Oxford on August Ioth, 1926. Translated by Mr. Robert Oppenheimer. The author is very much obliged to Mr. Oppenheimer for his careful translation.
