[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] FYI: Max Born's granddaughter dies

[Michael Alexander]

Thanks.   
In my youth and before I knew any quantum mechanics, Born’s book, Atomic Physics, was a favorite of mine.  I think I still have a copy.  
In those naïve days I was puzzled by the fact that Born was said to be located in the UK.  Of course, I had no clue about his achievements and fame, then.
It was a shame that the Nobel Prize committee took so long to give formal recognition to his work.

Max Born was a founder of quantum mechanics.  It was he who explained to Heisenberg that he was doing matrix algebra and to Schrödinger that the square of the wave function was probability of a measurement.  Olivia Newton John was Max Born's granddaughter.  She has died of cancer at age 73.===============================================
