... As you may know (or as we shall soon see) there is no way for a system of two spin-1/2 particles have a total spin of 1/2, so this process is forbidden by conservation of angular momentum. [if this is not clear to you, convince yourself after we have discussed the rules for adding angular momentum v ...

Hopf fibration - Niles Johnson
... These objects do not actually contain concrete information, such as position and velocity vectors, but rather tell us the various probabilities of observing all the physically possible results, if an observation were to be made. Crucially, if no observation is made, then the system cannot be said to ...

... – Upsilon is very rare particle, difficult to measure – We can insert simulated Upsilon particles into real events and then be able to search for them – This allows for a measure of detector efficiencies – Simulation allows us to set an upper limit on the production of Upsilon particles resulting fr ...

Chapter 4 MANY PARTICLE SYSTEMS
... The postulates of quantum mechanics outlined in previous chapters include no restrictions as to the kind of systems to which they are intended to apply. Thus, although we have considered numerous examples drawn from the quantum mechanics of a single particle, the postulates themselves are intended t ...

... Periodic: Goes from one turning point to another, turns around & moves until stops at another turning point. Repeats forever. Particle is in one valley or another. Can’t jump from one to another without getting extra energy > E2 (but, in QM: Tunneling!) Turning points: v = 0, T= 0, E2 = U(x). Gives ...

... At any given time, there is only one contributing amplitude (y1 or y2, but not both). Therefore, for half the time pattern P1 will build up, and for the other half we’ll get P2. There is no interference. The result will be the sum of the two single-slit diffraction patterns. In order for waves to in ...
