Basic Purpose of Quantum Mechanics
... If Classical mechanics alone governed the workings of an atom, electrons could not really "orbit" the nucleus. Since bodies in circular motion are accelerating, electrons must emit radiation, losing energy and eventually colliding with the nucleus in the process. This clearly contradicts the existen ...

... Particle interference is viewed as a characteristic feature of quantum mechanics. An electron beam traversing an optical apparatus such as a two slit arrangement displays, if the appropriate experimental conditions are met, an alternation of bright and dark fringes on a screen placed behind the plan ...

... Asymmetric steering is an effect whereby an inseparable bipartite system can be found to be described by either quantum mechanics or local hidden variable theories depending on which one of Alice or Bob makes the required measurements. We show that, even with an inseparable bipartite system, situati ...

... Quantum mechanics is one of the most fascinating fields in modern physics, and the heart of its fascination comes from counterintuitive and non-classical concepts. Concepts like wave-particle duality, absence of exact predictability, and inseparability of the universe at a larger scale, makes it an ...
