Werner Heisenberg - Collected Works (16 books)

==================================

A FOND FAREWELL

I profoundly regret to announce that these collections of Werner Heisenberg, Erwin Schrödinger, and Eric R. Kandel will be my final three torrents.

My circumstances are such that I find myself living in a building that I discovered to be controlled by a ruthless criminal gang.  Over the last two years I have been harassed and threatened continually because they fear their crimes (fraud certainly, but most probably also money laundering and prostitution, among others) being publicly exposed.  In recent months these cruel and sadistic attacks have become daily, and now hourly, occurrences.  The impact on my mental and physical well-being has become intolerable, and I cannot continue working under these conditions.

It has been my great pleasure to have served the file-sharing community for more than 10 years.  Researching, scanning, and building these torrent collections gave my life an entirely new and unexpected meaning, and I poured heart and soul into almost all of them.  I have been deeply gratified to receive your many kind comments and encouragement through the years, and it has been that support that has kept me going through some challenging times.  Without your help, I would never have got this far.

My seedbox subscription is scheduled to expire in February 2026, so you should have no difficulty downloading my collections at least until that time.  As always, if you find my torrents valuable I hope you will help to seed them for as long as you can.

"What thou lovest well remains,
the rest is dross
What thou lov'st well shall not be reft from thee
What thou lov'st well is thy true heritage"

* Werner Heisenberg - Collected Works (16 books)

WERNER HEISENBERG (1901 – 1976) was a German theoretical physicist and one of the main pioneers of the theory of quantum mechanics.  In 1925 he published a major breakthrough paper formulating quantum mechanics in terms of matrices, which was substantially elaborated in a subsequent series of papers with Max Born and Pascual Jordan.  He is known for the uncertainty principle, which he published in 1927.  Heisenberg was awarded the 1932 Nobel Prize in Physics "for the creation of quantum mechanics, the application of which has, inter alia, led to the discovery of the allotropic forms of hydrogen."

Heisenberg also made contributions to the theories of the hydrodynamics of turbulent flows, the atomic nucleus, ferromagnetism, cosmic rays, and subatomic particles.  He was a principal scientist in the Nazi nuclear weapons program during World War II.  He was also instrumental in planning the first West German nuclear reactor at Karlsruhe, together with a research reactor in Munich, in 1957.

From 1957 onwards Heisenberg was interested in work on problems of plasma physics and thermonuclear processes, and also much work in close collaboration with the International Institute of Atomic Physics at Geneva.  From 1953 his own theoretical work concentrated on the unified field theory of elementary particles which seems to him to be the key to an understanding of the physics of elementary particles.
