Building on the founding discoveries and theories in the history of quantum mechanics, the first theoretical calculations in chemistry were those of Walter Heitler and Fritz London in 1927.

Walter Heitler and Fritz London are credited with the first successful quantum mechanical explanation of a chemical bond, specifically that of molecular hydrogen, in 1927.

A successful model was developed already in 1927, by Walter Heitler and Fritz London, who derived quantum-mechanically, how hydrogen molecules are formed from hydrogen atoms, i. e. from the atomic hydrogen orbitals and centered at the nuclei A and B, see below.

Although the mathematical basis of quantum chemistry had been laid by Schrödinger in 1926, it is generally accepted that the first true calculation in quantum chemistry was that of the German physicists Walter Heitler and Fritz London on the hydrogen ( H < sub > 2 </ sub >) molecule in 1927.

Up to this point, the primary way to calculate the electronic structure of molecules was based on a calculation by Walter Heitler and Fritz London on the hydrogen molecule ( H < sub > 2 </ sub >) in 1927.

W. Murnau's Nosferatu, a Symphony of Horror ( 1922 ) and The Last Laugh ( 1924 ).

One film critic described the numerous influences: " From his infelicitous name to his physical clumsiness, Norville Barnes is a Preston Sturges hero trapped in a Frank Capra story, and never should that twain meet, especially not in a world that seems to have been created by Fritz Lang — the mechanistic monstrousness of the mailroom contrasted with the Bauhaus gigantism of the corporate offices perfectly matches the boss-labour split in Metropolis ( 1927 ).

The term Bioethics ( Greek bios, life ; ethos, behavior ) was coined in 1927 by Fritz Jahr, who " anticipated many of the arguments and discussions now current in biological research involving animals " in an article about the " bioethical imperative ," as he called it, regarding the scientific use of animals and plants.
