... Note: Some people think of the width fo the wavefunction as being the size of the particle. If so, particles do not have an inherent “size”. They are wave-like and spread out according to their “container” (forces) -- an electron can be microscopic (with uncertain momentum) Or gigantic (with ce ...

Statistical description of systems of particles
... Statistical ensemble The evolution of a system in a microscopic state is completely deterministic both in quantum and classical mechanics. However, such information cannot be made available for a system with a large number of degrees of freedom. We consider a large number of identical systems (ense ...

Theory of quantum state control with solid-state qubits Research supervisor
... The potential to exploit quantum-mechanics in technology, from sensors to computers, is vast. Essential for these developments, however, is the ability to take a quantum system with a few discrete states, such as an exciton in a quantum dot or impurity state in a crystal, and control its wavefunctio ...
