Abstract
While researching quantum physics, I realized that I had just finished a book that was based on quantum theory. At the time, I didn’t quite realize that quantum theory and quantum physics were interrelated. Niels Bohr once said, anyone who is not shocked by quantum theory has not understood it. He believed this because quantum physics makes the common laws of classical physics false on small scales. First, quantum physics is the physics of the incredibly small. It tries to explain the behavior of even smaller particles such as protons, neutrons, electrons, and even the particles that make up those particles. Would you believe that the model of an atom taught to us in chemistry is about 70 years out of date? In fact, an atom isn’t just a nucleus with electrons looping around it. Instead of having a fixed place for the electrons to be, quantum physics gives us a statistical probability of the electron s location at any one moment. These are the formulas derived from the extensions of the Heisenberg’s Principle and the motion of the electron in an orbit, which are emitted by a photon.
