Abstract:Vienna today is one of the capitals for the research on foundations of quantum physics. In this paper we reconstruct the main historical steps of the development of modern physics in Vienna, with an emphasis on quantum foundations. We show that the two main intuitive reasons, namely the influence of E. Schrödinger and the initiatives of A. Zeilinger in more recent years, cannot alone be held accountable for today's outstanding research landscape on foundation of quantum mechanics in Vienna. We instead show tha… Show more
