47 Born (2005), p. 82. Letter from Born to Einstein, 15 July 1925. Born may have discovered that Heisenberg's multiplication rule was exactly the same as that for matrix multiplication by the time he wrote to Einstein. Born recalled on one occasion that Heisenberg gave him the paper on 11 or 12 July. However, on another occasion he believed the date of his identifying the strange multiplication with matrix multiplication was 10 July.

53 In 1925 and 1926, Heisenberg, Born and Jordan never used the term 'matrix mechanics'. They always spoke about the 'new mechanics' or 'quantum mechanics'. Others initially referred to 'Heisenberg's mechanics' or 'Göttingen mechanics' before some mathematicians started referring to it as 'Matrizenphysik', 'matrix physics'. By 1927 it was routinely referred to as 'matrix mechanics', a name that Heisenberg always disliked.
