The physical reason behind quantum uncertainty | Big Think

No matter how good our measurement devices get, certain quantum properties always possess an inherent uncertainty. Can we figure out why? Source: The physical reason behind quantum uncertainty The way I'm trying to wrap my head around this uncertainty principle is by imagining a soccer field player launching a direct shot towards the goalie of …

The surprising origins of wave-particle duality

Source: The surprising origins of wave-particle duality Who would've thought? I hadn't been aware that the discovery of the wave-particle duality of photons, electrons and even larger structures of particles originated in the 17th century from the work of Christiaan Huygens. So the non-deterministic nature of our cosmos and reality are "set in stone" based …
