... probability of being at a particular narrow range of x-values (between x and dx). Everywhere else on the x-dimension the probability is zero. In quantum terms we equate the measured probability of finding the particle at any value of x to Y2 or the product of Y*Y. Since the wavefunction can have non ...

... 4) How do neon lights work? Once the light is plugged in and turned on, the electricity causes the electrons in neon to become ‘excited’, which means the electrons move a higher energy level orbital. Once they’re there, they want to get back down to ground state (the orbital they were originally in) ...

Quantum electrodynamics
In particle physics, quantum electrodynamics (QED) is the relativistic quantum field theory of electrodynamics. In essence, it describes how light and matter interact and is the first theory where full agreement between quantum mechanics and special relativity is achieved. QED mathematically describes all phenomena involving electrically charged particles interacting by means of exchange of photons and represents the quantum counterpart of classical electromagnetism giving a complete account of matter and light interaction.In technical terms, QED can be described as a perturbation theory of the electromagnetic quantum vacuum. Richard Feynman called it ""the jewel of physics"" for its extremely accurate predictions of quantities like the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron and the Lamb shift of the energy levels of hydrogen.
