Erwin Schrödinger (1887-1961), who formulated the basic principles of quantum mechanics. He won the . Many physics and chemistry students sigh (that's a pun for those who know) heavily when they have to learn how to normalize wave functions. The paisleys on my tie for today are reminders of the curves in space and time that are fundamental to the quantum theory.
