(via Sabine Hossenfelder) Physicists think that our universe started out as just a lot of quantum fluctuations. That means, if you’re able to calculate wave-function of those quantum fluctuations, you ...

Quantum mechanics is a pillar of modern science and technology, and has benefited the human society for a century. The wave function, also known as the quantum state, is the description of a quantum ...

In the peculiar world of quantum mechanics, particles exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties, and they can be described as having wave functions. Out of this strange world, the ...
