If I have N quantum particles in an isolated system. In short her system taps one of the odder facets of quantum theory, which posits that space isn't really a vacuum. Lubensky, Principles of condensedmatter physics, Cambridge University Press, 1995. First, we argue that the wave function in quantum mechanics is a description of random discontinuous motion of particles, and the modulus square of the wave function gives the probability density of the particles being in In addition, we also give a critical analysis of the de Broglie-Bohm theory, the many-worlds interpretation and dynamical collapse theories, and briefly analyze the problem of the incompatibility between quantum mechanics and special relativity.

The reason for this is that quantum chemistry was an early hotbed of problems in finite-dimensional many-particle systems. Orland, Quantum manyparticle systems, Perseus Books, 1998. Superconductivity is one of those effects that can be described as quantum physics emerging at a macroscopic scale – there is a 'giant wave function' comprising many particles, similar to infamous Bose-Einstein condensation. (I am indulging on sloppy It is true that simple quantum systems can be described as particles turned waves: such as the hydrogen atom that can be described nicely using a single-particle Schrödinger wave function. It's really filled with particles This uses a "moving mirror" cavity, where two very reflective very flat plates are held close together, and then moved slightly to interact with the quantum particle sea. Even though many previous insights where classical physics was OK may be confirmed by the quantum physics machinery, we need a brand new setup that works for the intrinsically quantum phenomena and the proofs of "common sense" facts in the everyday world are sometimes non-trivial, don't follow from any . It's horribly technical, but Or it could be that there are so many particles with which to interact that it actually has practical applications. The state vector "contains in it" all the dependence on the positions of particles or whatever basic degrees of freedom you consider in your system.
