Quantum tunneli - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

Quantum mechanics is a fundamental theory in physics that provides a description of the physical properties of nature at the scale of atoms and subatomic particles. It departs from classical physics in many ways, including: Quantization: energy, momentum, angular momentum, and other quantities are often restricted to discrete values. Wave-particle duality: objects have characteristics of both particles and waves. The uncertainty principle: it is impossible to simultaneously know...
