Quantum Mechanics Basics
... We cannot predict the outcome of a single experiment! We can predict outcome of a collection of single experiments on identically prepared systems, simply called “experiment” or “observation”! Born interpretation : The quantity |ψ(x)|2 dx gives the probability that the particle is found between x an ...
