Question
A group named for this physicist over n qubits is normalized by the Clifford group. This physicist originated the phrase “not even wrong” to describe unfalsifiable theories. A statement named for this physicist is the origin of the 12th-power repulsive term in the Lennard-Jones potential. A set of two-by-two unitary Hermitian matrices named for this physicist are used to describe the coupling of spin to an external EM field. Because their wavefunctions are antisymmetric under exchange, fermions obey a result named for this physicist stating no two of them can have all the same quantum numbers. For 10 points, name this Austrian physicist, the namesake of an exclusion principle. ■END■
