Quantum mechanics theory predicts that, in addition to exhibiting particle-like behavior, particles of all sizes can also ...

Irish physicist William Rowan Hamilton’s pioneering work contained hints of the enigmatic wave–particle duality that governs the universe.

Students learning quantum mechanics are taught the Schrodinger equation and how to solve it to obtain a wave function. But a crucial step is skipped because it has puzzled scientists since the ...

Quantum mechanics continues to offer profound insights into the fundamental nature of matter and energy, and the use of special functions plays a critical role in obtaining exact analytical solutions ...

We explore Objective Collapse Theories in a down to earth objective way. Objective Collapse Theories offer a explanation of quantum mechanics that is at once brand new and based in classical mechanics ...

The theory of quantum mechanics has transformed daily life since being proposed a century ago, yet how it works remains a mystery—and physicists are deeply divided about what is actually going on, a ...

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...

The seeds of quantum theory were sown by Albert Einstein and others as early as 1905. But the theory came together properly 100 years ago in 1925 – and has exerted its influence ever since, as this ...
