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 ...

But when quantum particles interact, their wave functions overlap and can become entangled. They share a unified quantum state, a single wave function that describes both particles simultaneously.

Bessel Function: A solution to Bessel’s differential equation, these functions commonly arise in problems exhibiting cylindrical symmetry in quantum and wave physics.

Quantum mechanics states that the source of the photons cannot be identified. This results in an interference pattern that can be used to reconstruct the unknown wave function.

In this, his supervisor, Max Born, spots a key truth of quantum mechanics (see “Carlo Rovelli on what we get wrong about the origins of quantum theory”).

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 ...

Some scientists and philosophers even think that wave function collapse is an elaborate illusion. This debate is called the measurement problem in quantum mechanics.

Such advances offer robust methodologies for tackling complex quantum systems and underscore the intimate connection between quantum mechanics and the theory of special functions.
