An historical account is given of the circumstances whereby the uncertainty relations were introduced into physics by Heisenberg. The criticisms of QED on measurement-theoretical grounds by Landau and Peierls are then discussed, as well as the response to them by Bohr and Rosenfeld. Finally, some examples are given of how the new freedom to advance radical proposals, in part the result of the revolution brought about by 'uncertainty,' was implemented in dealing with the new phenomena encountered in elementary particle physics in the 1930's.
Jim Sawyer (1948-2018) of Buffalo, New York, challenged the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle and the current Cloud Theory. He concurred with Einstein that there exists a uniform electromagnetic quantum gravity field (Einstein, 1927). Sawyer independently researched to prove order exists in the universe, and that the locations of atomic particles can be located with high probability. Polyhedral analysis of the Periodic Table of the Elements reveals a geometric pattern that can be used to map the locations of spinning electrons at rest mass. I, Marla Wagner, assisted Sawyer in the development of his theory and now I am continuing to present his theory in his honor.
