... Periodic boundary conditions Our periodic lattice can’t in reality go on forever, since in reality it’s composed of a finite number of molecules (e.g., N ≈1023). For N very large, it is reasonable to assume that the effect of the edges will be unimportant compared to what’s happening “in the bulk.” ...

In other words, the measurement causes our system to jump into an eigenstate of the dynamical variable being measured. Th ...
