Werner Heisenberg the first to reinterpret the Dirac equation as a "classical" field equation for any point particle of spin ħ/2, itself subject to quantization conditions involving anti-commutators. Thus reinterpreting it as a (quantum) field equation accurately describing electrons, Heisenberg put matter on the same footing as electromagnetism: as being described by relativistic quantum field equations which allowed the possibility of particle creation and destruction. (Hermann Weyl had already described this in a 1929 letter to Albert Einstein.) Heisenberg's paper establishing quantum mechanics has puzzled physicists and historians. His methods assume that the reader is familiar with Kramers-Heisenberg transition probability calculations. The
Heisenberg model (quantum) respectively. Other approaches do so without Bethe ansatz. The physics of the Heisenberg model strongly depends on the sign of the coupling constant formula_3 and the dimension of the space. For positive formula_3 the ground state is always ferromagnetic. At negative formula_3 the ground state is antiferromagnetic in two and three dimensions, it is from this ground state that the Hubbard model is given. In one dimension the nature of correlations in the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model depends on the spin of the magnetic dipoles. If the spin is integer then only short-range order is present.
