From time atoms to space-time quantization: The idea of discrete time, ca 1925-1936.

Discusses the attempts at introducing time atoms and discrete spacetime. Philosophical idea of temporal atomicity; Views on discrete time; Hypothesis of discrete time; Existence of minimal time intervals of the size; 92 as the maximum number of electrons found in the atom; Quantum numerology; Schro...
