6. Quantum Uncertainty  Max Planck – Inventor of QM ?  Black Body Radiation Eqn (1901) Energy emitted in bundles of energy Energy is QUANTISED Hence birth of QM….  But actually….  The paper does not stress quanta, never says E=nhv  “a purely formal assumption”, Planck 1931  In 1901 nobody noticed the quanta ! Historical revisionism!  So what was first “Quantum” paper ?  1905, Photo-Electric Effect, Einstein  Realised quantum nature of Planck’s theory
