Quantum mechanics are an integral part of modern day technology and contemporary society. Quantum mechanics are an important part of transistors, the main part of an integrated circuit. Without the discovery of quantum mechanics, the transistor would not exist. Therefore, computers and other important modern day technologies would not exist either. Although the idea of quantum mechanics is a very difficult idea to conceptualize, it is an extremely important concept to grasp in order to understand
Introduction Quantum mechanics or also known as quantum physics is a field of science which studies the behaviour of particles at sub-atomic level. This theory tells us that short-lived pairs of particles and their antiparticles are constantly being created and destroyed in an apparently empty space. In quantum mechanics the weird behaviour of electrons are not accurately explained and until now not a single theory is acceptable by the whole scientific community to postulate the phenomena. The
n the early 20th century it was discovered that particle such as the electron could be in two locations simultaneously . The behaviour of these particles is governed by quantum mechanics, a set of outlandish physical laws. Laws that allow these particles to be in an infinite number of states at a time, allowing them to be be in an infinite number of locations with an infinite range of characteristics simultaneously. However, can this observed behaviour be applied to actual people? It seems strange
Alice in Quantumland 1. Electrons have no distinguishing features except spin Upon falling into the quantum wonderland while in her living room, Alice finds herself faced with a new reality of existence that seems to baffle her. She is first met with some strange-looking dweller of the new and vastly strange wonderland that she could not make out. She politely introduces herself as Alice, thereby invoking a response from her companion to the effect that it was an electron. Alice also noted
Pauli Exclusion Principle Wolfgang Ernst Pauli was an Austrian theoretical physicist famous for his work on the spin and quantum theory, and for the beneficial finding of the Pauli exclusion principle. Pauli was born on April 25th, 1900 and died on December 15th, 1958. He was a Foreign Member of the Royal Society of London and a member of the Swiss Physical Society, the American Physical Society and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Pauli helped to set in place the basis
illuminated the world with the electric light, and cured illnesses that used kill thousands. In a world where we look to technology to answer all of life’s problems, we are faced with a dilemma. How can our technology possibly keep up with our modern needs? In the first book of the Neanderthal Parallax, Hominids, by Robert J. Sawyer, we are transported into a parallel universe. In this unpolluted world that is populated by Neanderthals, there is a sophisticated computing system, we know as a quantum computer
Introduction Psychiatric illnesses affected heavily almost every country of the world. Billions of dollars are put to research on psychiatric disorders every year. Although from time to time new methods of treatment are followed by researchers. However the results and the efficiency of treatment are almost bleak. In brain sciences the problems which we start with before hundred years are almost as such and with psychiatry it becomes more compounded. We are not yet able to control the psychiatric
Quantum mechanics was developed over many decades ago,Quantum mechanics is science dealing with the behaviour of matter and light on the atomic and subatomic scale. It attempts to describe and account for the properties of molecules and atoms and their constituents—electrons, protons, neutrons, and other more particles. This type of physics beginning as a set of controversial mathematical explanations of experiments that the math of classical mechanics could not explain. It began at the turn of the
The history of the atomic theory is thoroughly extensive. It had all started around 400 BCE when few people believed in an atomic theory, that atoms are building blocks. Democratic believed matter was made up of tiny particles. He called them atomos. Democratic is Leucippus’ most infamous pupil Later in history, the law of definite proportions was discovered. Two samples of given compounds are made of the same elements in exactly same proportions by mass regardless of the size or sources of the samples
We all live in a complex universe and human is curious about by nature. What is the world made of? This is an enormous progress era that allows humans to find some answers to their curiosity. And string theory is the recent attempt of humans to answer this curiosity. Our basic science would explain to us that the world is made of matter. This ordinary matter is made of atoms which is composed of the basic components, electrons which are around the nucleus,a nucleus that is composed of neutrons and
