In the first chapter, we drew the shape of a wave. Now, let's move on to the rules that determine the movement of waves. Me: ...

Schrödinger did not derive his equation from classical mechanics using only mechanical calculations. He connected de ...

The heart of quantum mechanics is the wave-particle duality: matter and light possess both wave-like and particle-like attributes. Typically, the wave-like properties are inferred indirectly from the ...

Researchers have developed summation-by-parts numerical schemes that exactly conserve the energy invariants of two dispersive ...

That blue, pixelated image, ladies and gentlemen, is the very first image of an atom’s electron orbital structure. In other words, you’re looking at the first picture of an atom’s wave function. Here, ...

Physicists from the Canadian Institute for Measurement Standards are the first to measure a quantum mechanical wave function. And it only took 88 years from the formulation of Schroedinger’s equation!
