Apr 13, 2016 · The wave function is the solution to the Schrödinger equation, given your experimental situation. With a classical system and Newton's equation, you would obtain a …

Oct 25, 2022 · However, Schrödinger initially interpreted this component as the charge density (here I ignore some constant factors, such as the elementary charge). This interpretation has …

Aug 3, 2017 · The wave function of an electron does not signify anything in itself. The only useful thing we can get from it is the probability density (probability per unit volume), which is the …

Oct 23, 2019 · The wave function is the probability amplitude (see this post) which is not the same thing as a probability density (also called a distribution, the thing you normally encounter in …

You should compare this to a pressure and pressure density or to mass and mass density. The relation between the quantum wave function and probability density is given by the Born rule …

Oct 22, 2013 · That is really what a wave function is, in fact: A summation of the simple waves that represent every likely location and momentum situation that the particle could be in. Full …

Jun 2, 2015 · The wave function is a function of spacetime that returns a complex number. We interpret this as meaning that the wavefunction requires two components to describe it.

Sep 29, 2016 · The wavefunction of a single photons is used in single-photon interferometry, for example. In a sense, it is not much different from the electron, where the wave-function start to …

In von Neuman interpretation the collapse of the wave function happens when the observer feels any qualia (feeling) depended on the measured value. In Bohm interpretation the collapse of …

And this is a symmetric configuration for the spin part of the wave function. So this is coherent. But, for an other physical problem, with fermions,you may have to minimize another kind of …
