• Hermitian Operators

    Quantum Mechanical operators are hermitian. If a quantum mechanical operator is represented by a matrix then so that is equal to the complex conjugate transpose of For example, the spin Pauli operators may be represented by the matrices Every quantum...

  • The Copenhagen Interpretation

    Quantum physics has as it's root that every particle may be described by a wavefunction. The wavefunction – which describes the motion of the particle – has no real physical interpretation. In general the wavefunction may take non real or imaginary...

  • Successes and Limitations of the Bohr Model

    The Bohr model gave a picture of the hydrogen atom which was very successful, explaining all the lines in the spectrum then known, and predicting more which were found. It put on a semi theoretical basis the Rydberg formula, which until then had been a...
