The presentation is based on Constructing Quantum Mechanics (Oxford, 2019/2023), a two-volume book, for which Michel and his co-author, Pittsburgh particle theorist Tony Duncan, were awarded the 2026 Pais Prize for History of Physics by the American Physical Society.Using the metaphor of building a cathedral, Michel will give an overview, as concise and non-technical as possible, of the construction, between 1900 and 1927, of the cathedral of quantum mechanics, drawn in various stages by Laurent.The event will be concluded with a conversation between Michel and Laurent about their long-time collaboration, merging art and science in several books and articles.  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/999910e0-a700-11f1-8990-5d04d231a2dd-rimg-w523-h740-dcf8f8f8-gmir.jpg
