- The quantum world sees waves, our view of the world sees particles. Measurements collapse the wave function. How that is accomplished, we don’t know.
- Superposition is a system that has two different states that can define it and it’s possible for it to exist in both. For example, in physical terms, an electron has two quantum states: spin up and spin down.
- Quantum superposition arises because, at the quantum scale, particles behave like waves. Similar to how multiple waves can overlap each other to form a single new wave, quantum particles can exist in multiple overlapping states at the same time.
- Quantum entanglement is a quantum mechanical phenomenon in which the quantum states of two or more objects have to be described with reference to each other, even though the individual objects may be spatially separated. This leads to correlations between observable physical properties of the systems. Entanglement occurs when a pair of particles, such as photons, interact physically. A laser beam fired through a certain type of crystal can cause individual photons to be split into pairs of entangled photons. A large distance, hundreds of miles, or even more can separate the photons. Two electrons hook up at a distance.
- Quantum superposition: Chances are, here and there. You see what is, not what was.
- Quantum mechanics is a binary function, while classic physics is triune. They interact with each other.
- Non-locality describes the apparent ability of objects to instantaneously know about each other’s state, even when separated by large distances (potentially even billions of light-years), almost as if the universe at large instantaneously arranges its particles in anticipation of future events.
- Quantum tunneling causes the sun to shine. Hydrogen turns into helium and releases fusion energy. Energy allows life. the sun makes its energy by colliding lighter atomic nuclei to form a heavier element. This conclusion is obviously wrong, the sun shines, for which we owe to a peculiar phenomenon called Quantum Tunneling.
- The uncertainty principle states that the more precisely the position of some particle is determined, the less precisely its momentum can be predicted from initial conditions, and vice versa. The uncertainty principle arises from the wave-particle duality. Every particle has a wave associated with it; each particle actually exhibits wavelike behavior. So a strictly localized wave has an indeterminate wavelength; its associated particle, while having a definite position, has no certain velocity.
Quantum mechanics: It is all about the probability of the wave distribution. In quantum mechanics, a probability amplitude is a complex number used in describing the behavior of systems. … the original physicists working on the theory, such as Schrödinger and Einstein vigorously contested at the time These probabilistic concepts, namely the probability density and quantum. Probability in Quantum Mechanics is Given by the Wave Function Squared. The Bohr Rule is then very simple: it says that the probability of obtaining any possible measurement outcome is equal to the square of the corresponding amplitude. (The wave function is just the set of all the amplitudes.) It is a theory of atomic structure in which the hydrogen atom (Bohr atom ) is assumed to comprise a proton as the nucleus, with a single electron moving in distinct circular orbits around it, each orbit corresponding to a specific quantized energy state: the theory was extended to other atoms.
