Quantum Theory

by Payman Sheriff, Serge Haroche, David Bohm

From the infinitely small to the infinitely big covering over sixty spatial orders of magnitude quantum theory is used as much to describe the still largely mysterious vibrations of the microscopic strings that could be the basic constituents to explain the fluctuations of the Radiation reaching us from the depths of outer space. Serge Haroche Quantum theory consists of two equal important Density Probability of the Schrodinger Equation The Von Neumann Measurement Postulate The evolution of the wave function described by the Schrödinger equation has two key It is a reversible process, so one can always undo the process in order to return to the initial state from the final state. It is a deterministic evolution in which the final state is uniquely determined by the initial state if the Hamiltonian is known.
