  Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Werner Heisenberg   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
Werner Karl Heisenberg (December 5, 1901 – February 1, 1976) was a celebrated German physicist and Nobel laureate, one of the founders of quantum mechanics.
In 1957 Heisenberg together with Otto Hahn, Max von Laue, Carl Friedrich von Weizsäcker and Max Born formulated and signed a protest against nuclear arming of the German Armed Forces and world-wide nuclear armaments, the so-called "Göttingen Declaration of the German Nuclear Physicists".
In it, an angry Bohr relates that Heisenberg, in their 1941 conversation, did not express any moral problems with the bomb making project, that Heisenberg had spent the past two years working almost exclusively on it, and that he was convinced that the atomic bomb would eventually decide the war.

 Spectrum of a C*-algebra   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
The hull-kernel topology is easy to describe abstractly, but in practice for C*-algebras associated to locally compact topological groups, other characterizations of the topology on the spectrum in terms of positive definite functions are desirable.
Examples of separable locally compact groups G such that C*(G) is of type I are connected (real) nilpotent Lie groups and connected real semi-simple Lie groups.
Thus the Heisenberg groups are all of type I. Compact and abelian groups are also of type I. Theorem.

 Some questions in QFT
In the first case exponentiate to get the group elements and take the commutator.
I heard about that people can thinks [x,p]=i as a central extension of the abelian group [x,p]=0, and there is some weird group called Heisenberg group, but I have not seen any virtue of this kind of viewpoint yet.
Weinberg seems feel very pleased that he replaced causality with CDP, I wonder why he is so upset about causality, my guess is that maybe because grativity.
