As far as i understand it the "helix" arises when you not just graph out 1 dimension over time or angle but have a complex plane. So for example: y=sin(x) becomes Re=cos(x) + Im=i*sin(x). If that looks familiar, than e^(i*x) might also crossed your eyes. If you exactly one wave with a single frequency component and amlitude, then your signal is a pure helix in this representation of a complex graph. Never forget: a graph is a tool to visualize, not to accuratly depict reality. There is no sinusoidal drawn line in your power outlet either.

Nice vid! The energy levels in an infinite square well are quantized due to the fact that the boundary conditions yield 0 for the for the wave equation. psi(0)=0 and psi(L)=0. Needless to say, that the quantized energy levels of an infinite square well depends on the width of the well. Its because of these boundary conditions the we can normalize the wave function without having to use the fourier transform. It seems like all we do in my quantum class is learn many methods for finding characteristics of the wave equation. It's nice to step back and look at the big picture every now and then
In my approach there is no need to refer to any wave function. Each individual process is described by the non-commutative elements of the phase-space algebra itself. Classical physics uses a commutative phase-space algebra. Classical physics has the Poisson brackets as a vital part of the description. What we have to understand is how that bracket emerges from the non-commutative structure. Now the non-commutative algebra contains two types of bracket, a commutator or Lie bracket (or Lie product to give it its proper mathematical name) and an anti-commutator or Baker bracket ( known as the Jordan product). The Lie bracket becomes the Poisson bracket as we go to the classical limit, while the Jordan product becomes the normal inner product. In symbols (AB + BA)/2 -> AB. The Jordan product is the most neglected product in the whole discussion of the foundations of quantum mechanics. This is not a 'cheat answer’. It's what you have to understand if you really want to the relation between quantum and classical physics. The clearest discussion of this issue is in the paper I have attached. I hope you find it helpful. Basil Hiley However non-commutativity is deeply ingrained in quantum phenomena and is not, in my opinion, “only mathematics”. The early pioneers of QM, such as Heisenberg, Born, Jordan, Dirac and others showed this feature of non-commutativity in great detail. It was Schrödinger’s work that led to the development of a tremendously successful algorithm based on the notion of a wave function which was formalised into the bras and kets that we have got very very used to manipulating. However by identifying the wave function with the 'state of a system’ we have been left with the unsolved ‘problem', the collapse of the wave function. After one hundred years of effort we have been unable to 'solve this problem’. In the last few years I have come to the conclusion that this is unsolvable simply because it is the wrong question as it is based on treating an algorithm rather than a description of an unfolding process. That the quantum formalism was an algorithm was Bohr’s position all those years ago, but he argued that we could not go deeper by attempting to analysing the process because of the 'Principle of Complementary’. This philosophical principle seemed to have universal appeal outside of physics but now, he argued, with the advent of quantum phenomena, this principle also had a role to play in physics, so to Bohr, the principle became a universal principle that applied to all knowledge. The availability of the ‘algorithm’ which was easy to manipulate and lead to experimental verification should be contrasted with the difficulty in understanding non-commutativity, both mathematically and conceptuality. Furthermore it was very difficult to apply it physical problems. Thus the algorithm becomes the ‘only game in Town’ as we learn how to deal with its uncomfortable features. Then there follows an attempt to make the formalism in to an ontology and the result is a plague of interpretations. I have recently published two papers which address directly the challenge of providing a description of this ‘quantum unfolding’ as Dirac puts it. It is a very different approach which is based on an exploration of non-commutative geometry, in the same spirit of Alain Connes but using more physical intuition. It is a long story but I have a lecture on line at which may help. My lecture is Lecture 2 immediately after Roger Penrose’s lecture in the series ‘Mind and Matter’. My lecture was about 'Matter’ not ‘Mind'! Enjoy, Basil.
Your videos remind me of the old 1950s educational videos. So much information packed in an easy and clear format. No waststed time straight just to the point.
@ Eugene Khutoryansky : at 7.54 min.: energy is related to frequency and frequency is no. of rotation of wave. Now when partcle is trapped in 1D box, wavelength is discrete, but frequency (no of rotation) can be continuous...so energy should not be discrete.

These visualizations are so helpful when trying to grasp these concepts. They don't always clarify everything for me, but they sure do help a lot. I also appreciate the fact that you express the concepts so carefully without glossing over things, or saying crazy things like the particle IS a wave, rather than it is represented by a wave. It always confuses and discourages me when I hear those kinds of statements, which you seem to scrupulously avoid, and that also helps a lot! Thanks for these excellent educational aids that you have created!

Thank you so much, you're making me interested to the true nature of our Universe and it's such an experience to try to understand. Amazing video's you make
This is by far the most amazing demonstration/visualization of the topic I have ever seen -- it clarified things quite a bit for me. Thank you so much and keep doing these videos, please! :)
I am a civil engineer and for me, the other channels with more of verbal explanations doesnt penetrate my brain but your Quantum and Electrical Videos are super understandable. Thank you for the many hours spent in making each inch of that video. I know its real hard especially when you do it yourself.
This is wonderful, he is using Fourier Series to explain Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle. I never thought that position and momentum could be explained with harmonics. But once you accept the dual wait particle nature of energy and matter, you can then break down the waveform into harmonics.
+Dimitris Kolokouris Good to know. My Physical Chemistry text book back in the 1980's was Ira N. Levine, copyright 1978. I think there was another text box in the 2nd semester, but I lost it.
+John Doe I am amazed that nobody has ever bothered to use harmonics to explain the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle to me before! It seems like a very useful conceptualization, at least once you're comfortable with Fourier series...
5 years since I took my first physics course in high school and I only finally understand the significance of the shapes of orbitals and their relationship to wave functions. Thank you!
This video is so great, i almost finish my first quantum mechanics course and I can say that this video summarizes a lot about it, and in my case it helps me to understand a lot more than the mathematical form we see in class.
This is amazing! It's the first time I get to see the orbitals of an electron in action. In most books and videos you are presented to a more static representation of the orbitals as an electron cloud which stays...still..it doesnt oscillate like you present it. This is incredible. Your videos are very helpful to me since I am not a physicist but more of a guy with a chemical backround. Thank you for your contribution
You capture so elegantly the true understanding of Eulers formula - that the real and imaginary axis of sine and cosine waves trace out a helix in 3D space. The understanding that the probability is proportional to the square of the radius makes crystal clear sense when you see that radius sweeping out a 2-Dimensional area
Physics Videos by Eugene Khutoryansky Hi..I want ur permission to translate ur videos to Urdu/Hindi language. M not earning anything but just adding my little service to my society.
The moment the video said that only specific energy levels were possible when the particle is constrained by energy, boundaries, etc. my head immediately jumped to the energy levels of electrons in atoms, and I was so excited when that example turned out to be true later in the video. Such a great “aha” moment, thank you.
As a college junior in physics I want to thank you I’m understanding my Quantum Mechanics class much better with this visualization! Thank you so much!
Yes. More specifically, an orbital happens when the electron's position wave is confined by the electric force of the atomic nucleus. It interferes with itself and stabilizes as a standing wave configuration. This standing wave configuration is an orbital.
"If you cannot explain it in an easy way, that means you do not understand it completely" - Albert Einstein You are doing a great job in explaining quantum physics!! Love your videos!! Keep going!!!
With transcendental meditation which unifies ur conciousness wit energy u can see it lol I can see it an it's still alot to grasp but over time I will see it so much an be able to understand it an make this alot easier to understand
I'm currently reading the book The Quantum Universe by Brian Cox and Jeff Forshaw, and I once again found my way back to this channel. It seems that what ever I try to study (provided it is math or physics) always leads me here. So thank you again for another great video. And it is amazing that you were able to animate arguably one of the most complicated phenomenon to visualize in all of physics so intuitively.
Great video as always :) Very helpful! I've just got one question - at 7:30 onwards we can see that each particle in a box wavefunction = Asin(pi*n*x/L) e^i*omega*t (where L is the length of the box and n is the harmonic) you said that for higher n values, the angular frequency (omega) increases - so I was wondering what the relationship between omega and n is? thanks a lot :)
This is an amazing video. Having the visualization of the wave function really helps to verify or correct what a person imagines as they are studying this stuff.
Great video! Excellent use of engaging visuals! The content was (happily) simple, reminded me of Brian Cox's book "The Quantum Universe". Really mind blowing details without mucking through the maths! Thank you!
+Alexandru Gheorghe, thanks. Though, I plan on eventually having a separate video devoted just to Schrodinger’s equation, and also a separate video devoted to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.
Great explanation, the visuals, pacing, and music were all perfect. Even though I am still confused, I understood the wave-particle behavior much better.
Wow! Fantasti Video...!!!... I've read a lot of books covering this topic but THIS video seems to have made some obstacles much more clearer now! Thanks for your time you invest in these video, great animation, good narration, so well explained. I hope you keep up this excellent work!
This helped to fill in SO MANY gaps in my understanding (after reading numerous books about Quantum Mechanics and String Theory)! Thank you for this wonderful production and very clear illustration of these complex concepts.
The books didn't make sense to you because the info is not true. There are no particles or physical matter. Nothing solid. Only Energy! So called particles are waves of Energy vibrating at different rates of frequencies. Infinite possibilities. An atom and all the sub atomic particles in an atom are empty space of Energy vibrating. The only reason your hand doesn't go through the table is because the table is vibrating at a similar rate as your body.
@@ChrisOakesCO Does that mean the 'strings' (in String Theory) are merely a way of describing those energy waves OR are they actually GENERATING those waves?
@@ParkinT If there's stings there waves, not solid matter. Do you know of anything that's solid? Even a rock or diamond made up of atoms. Atoms aren't solid an the sub atomic particles in atoms aren't solid either. They are all far apart from each other an moving around each other. I'm not saying this in a rude way, just saying there is no solid physical particles. All matter is condensed Energy.
@@EugeneKhutoryansky You are welcome. P.S. I think that would be very very useful a video about quantum field theory with your style! Have a nice day 😊
I watched it... *IT WAS NICEEE* the way they explained : 1. superposition, one and two dimensional motion of particle . 2.The multivariable graph was pretty nice correlation. 3. And at last the music, that someone else could also exist in my room which i could not see ! It was really nice
Awesome clip Eugene, and very apt in relation to the recent discovery by LIGO. Great building blocks towards a clip on gravitational waves and the hypothetical particle that accompanies (interacts) with these waves. Although I will have to watch it several times for my old brain to catch up :). Thanks for your great work
Very nice visualization. Wavefunction, as I understand, is extremely difficult to imagine and impossible to observe with experiments. But your video helped me to imagine with big WOW how the electron could be orbiting the nucleus in different orbitals. Thanks for this wonderful work.
Wonderful example of the Schroedinger Equation. I am going to message the web link for this video to my daughter, so she better understands. She saw Minute Physics introduction to Quantum Mechanics and when I asked her at Thanksgiving what was Quantum Mechanics, she said it was about fire only being able to be certain colors. But Minute Physics did a really good job of explaining Special and General Relativity to kids. I think from the Minute Physics videos she understands better than from PBS Space Time.
+Feynstein100 They skip so much math in PBS Space Time that most kids can follow it. My daughter is 13 now, but when she was 12, she really understood the idea of black holes, and the event horizon from the PBS Space Time video presented by their former host, who moved his hands a lot when he talked. Physic Videos sometimes shows math equations, but is mostly understandable by kids. I watched Leonard Susskind's videos, where he derives General Relativity from scratch and the simplified. version from A Level Physics. I consider that to be adults. I didn't realize that if you know Tensor Calculus, you can solve General Relativity equations. Any electrical engineer, who is doing something serious with Maxwell's equation knows Tensor Calculus. So that there is actually a large body of people that can solve General Relativity problems.
+John Doe To be honest, if they actually work in electrical engineering and not as "connection engineers" taking applications and joining them together, then they do need Tensor Calculus and Maxwell's Equations. It's the difference between making $250,000 US and $100,000 US as an electrical engineer. Last year I earned $150K, so I am not really up there with people who do real electrical engineering. I just join applications together. Thank God for my mutual fund and so tick investments.
Wow. I had most of my Quantum Physics fundamentals by 1989/90...then in tech school(90-94) some more ideas and Schrodinger’s equations... if I(we) had such videos I am sure my level of learning/understanding and interest would have jumped multiple times.
I started studying physics back in 2004. God! quantum mechanics would be much more exciting if this video existed back then. Quantum Math converted to visual reality. What an amazing time to exist!
+Physics Videos by Eugene Khutoryansky You are so wonder to make me fell good today! Thanks to you! You make Me, truly good SomeBody, where the rest of me remains a mysterious NOBODY to Others!
I like this! Good visualization of mathematical integration of multiple wave superposition and collapse of wave function, also relative to atomic structure, cool!
Wonderful, im more a visual thinker, not really a mathematician as such and love your videos helps a lot. Gives me a better handle on the maths. All the best
My thanks to the creators of these beautifully produced videos with their clear and insightful explanations. Videos like this help to “blow the dust” away from outmoded methods of presenting these concepts. I think that deducing the “Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle” from the wave nature of matter is the ONLY way it should be taught. The typical introduction to uncertainty with the “delta-x times delta-p >= h” stuff is unnecessarily puzzling and misleading to entry level students. It completely bypasses the chance to show that the “uncertainty” of measuring complimentary properties, like position and momentum, fall simply and elegantly out of wave analysis. It was many years after my initiation into QM that this was explained in a book written for the wide audience; it came to me like a beautiful revelation. 🦋 Teaching QM from a historic point of view has its place [In a history of science class perhaps!] but I think it is counterproductive and inefficient. It reinforces all the old ideas, assumptions and intuitions that humanbeings had and have about physical reality; intuitions that prevent students from understanding the principles of QM and prevented mankind from discovering these principles in the first place. I understand the historical reasons that it is called “Quantum Mechanics”, as it first presented the idea that energy could be “quantized”, but I think it is a shame that this label stuck as it doesn’t get to the core of the matter or the “core of matter” for that matter. [Sorry, I just couldn’t resist the word-play.] I think “Quantum Mechanics” should better be called something like: “Wave Physics” as all the “weird” behavior of QM can be derived from the mathematics of waves. I also think we should stop calling fundamental particles “particles” as this reinforces images of localized macroscopic objects like billiard balls 🎱⚽️🎾🏀🌎🤹🏻♂️and the like with their fixed pre-existing properties of location and momentum. I have begun to use the word “particulars” for these units of matter. I think it is a better word because it remains vague about properties but still contains the idea of countable individual identity.

Wow. Thanks for this. This has helped my head a lot.I'm not a physicist, just a curious person
I am the same. If you have any advice or sweet channels to look at please let me know! Thanks!
I am a civil engineer and for me, the other channels with more of verbal explanations doesnt penetrate my brain but your Quantum and Electrical Videos are super understandable. Thank you for the many hours spent in making each inch of that video. I know its real hard especially when you do it yourself.
Thanks for the compliments. I am glad my videos are helpful.
@@EugeneKhutoryansky Thank you for replying ❤️❤️❤️
This is wonderful, he is using Fourier Series to explain Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle. I never thought that position and momentum could be explained with harmonics. But once you accept the dual wait particle nature of energy and matter, you can then break down the waveform into harmonics.
+John Doe you can find the same qualitative explanation for this in Atkin's Physical Chemistry. It's a very delicate explanation i my opinion
+Dimitris Kolokouris Good to know. My Physical Chemistry text book back in the 1980's was Ira N. Levine, copyright 1978. I think there was another text box in the 2nd semester, but I lost it.
+John Doe
I am amazed that nobody has ever bothered to use harmonics to explain the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle to me before! It seems like a very useful conceptualization, at least once you're comfortable with Fourier series...
Wait isn't it a she???

5 years since I took my first physics course in high school and I only finally understand the significance of the shapes of orbitals and their relationship to wave functions. Thank you!
+Rizwan Awan (TheOnlyRizzy), Glad I was able to help. Thanks.
The level of concentration on all fundamental concepts to truly understand what's going on... lots of work to do... whew.
William Alston i think that's the point
This video is so great, i almost finish my first quantum mechanics course and I can say that this video summarizes a lot about it, and in my case it helps me to understand a lot more than the mathematical form we see in class.
The music makes me feel like I'm watching a documentary on poltergeist in quantum mechanics
I am a indian please give me your whatsapp no
@@kmshaloo7111 noh
This is amazing! It's the first time I get to see the orbitals of an electron in action. In most books and videos you are presented to a more static representation of the orbitals as an electron cloud which stays...still..it doesnt oscillate like you present it. This is incredible. Your videos are very helpful to me since I am not a physicist but more of a guy with a chemical backround. Thank you for your contribution
+Dimitris Kolokouris, thanks. I am glad to hear that my videos have been helpful.
I like this video, it's nice and not too simplified for it to keep its value. 2 Thumbs up!!
The quality of your videos is phenomenal. Your videos on quantum mechanics and wave-particle duality are very detailed and comprehensive.
Thanks for the compliment about my videos.
You make physics a little bit easier to understand
much easier*
You capture so elegantly the true understanding of Eulers formula - that the real and imaginary axis of sine and cosine waves trace out a helix in 3D space. The understanding that the probability is proportional to the square of the radius makes crystal clear sense when you see that radius sweeping out a 2-Dimensional area
Thanks for the compliments about my visualization.
please please give an animation for eigen function and eigen value
A video on Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors is coming soon. Thanks.
Physics Videos by Eugene Khutoryansky Hi..I want ur permission to translate ur videos to Urdu/Hindi language. M not earning anything but just adding my little service to my society.
For anything linear algebra, look up 3B1B. They have amazing, very conceptual videos :)
@@lineakristensen1821 Thanks for the reference to linear algebra, Excellent !!
Ok
The moment the video said that only specific energy levels were possible when the particle is constrained by energy, boundaries, etc. my head immediately jumped to the energy levels of electrons in atoms, and I was so excited when that example turned out to be true later in the video. Such a great “aha” moment, thank you.
honestly kept watching to see if the beat would drop
No other channels explains physics with this much detail...I love the way they explain everything with so much detail and simple manner ❤️😍👍🏻
amazing video, and nice animation, hatts off!
+Sangeet Chand, thanks. I am glad you liked my video and my animations.
Superb visual interpretations and animations. Congratulations!
Thanks for the compliment.
Thanks Eugene for this beautifull video. I love you for that you bring to the world =)
As a college junior in physics I want to thank you
I’m understanding my Quantum Mechanics class much better with this visualization! Thank you so much!
Thanks. I am glad my video is helpful. I have a number of other videos like this one which you might also like.
This is how the orbitals get their shape :O mind blown
Yes. More specifically, an orbital happens when the electron's position wave is confined by the electric force of the atomic nucleus. It interferes with itself and stabilizes as a standing wave configuration. This standing wave configuration is an orbital.
This is such a well presented simplification of a fascinating topic. Thank you!
As always, its a clear explanation of a difficult subject. Its the best. Thanks.
Thanks for the compliment.
After watching many videos on the subject, for the first time I think I began understanding the concept. Thank you.
Interesting and useful animation. Would you mind making a 1-minute tutorial on how you did that animation? Thank you!
"If you cannot explain it in an easy way, that means you do not understand it completely"

You are doing a great job in explaining quantum physics!! Love your videos!! Keep going!!!
Thanks.
the more quantum physics i try to learn the more confused i get lol
Probably that's a good thing. If you had understood everything maybe that'd mean that you wouldn't have understood it properly.
That’s because most of what they are saying is not reality.
With transcendental meditation which unifies ur conciousness wit energy u can see it lol I can see it an it's still alot to grasp but over time I will see it so much an be able to understand it an make this alot easier to understand
@@markfennell1167 it's reality once u bring ur conciousness to a certain level to unify wit it an see the "unseen"
I'm currently reading the book The Quantum Universe by Brian Cox and Jeff Forshaw, and I once again found my way back to this channel. It seems that what ever I try to study (provided it is math or physics) always leads me here. So thank you again for another great video. And it is amazing that you were able to animate arguably one of the most complicated phenomenon to visualize in all of physics so intuitively.
Thanks for the compliment.
Great video as always :) Very helpful!
I've just got one question - at 7:30 onwards we can see that each particle in a box wavefunction = Asin(pi*n*x/L) e^i*omega*t
(where L is the length of the box and n is the harmonic)
you said that for higher n values, the angular frequency (omega) increases - so I was wondering what the relationship between omega and n is?
thanks a lot :)
This is an amazing video. Having the visualization of the wave function really helps to verify or correct what a person imagines as they are studying this stuff.
Thanks for the compliments about my video.
Great video! What is the name of the song used at the beginning?
Thanks. All the music in this video is from the free TH-cam audio library, and the names of the songs are the following.
Clouds
Stale Mate
No more comments.
And the last three minutes of video is perfectly animated .
Awsome
Thanks.
This is god tier
the wholeness of that mathematical function at 4:55 is so beautiful, when observed on a semi-controlled environment.
Also, what is the title and author of the piano composition?
+Josh E, The music is from the TH-cam's free audio library, and the names of the songs are "Clouds" and "Stale Mate."
+Physics Videos by Eugene Khutoryansky Believe it or not, I can't find a video for it. Seems fitting for the topic of the video. :|
@@digitaltheory4534 when you upload a video go to the music library and search for it there
Great video! Excellent use of engaging visuals! The content was (happily) simple, reminded me of Brian Cox's book "The Quantum Universe". Really mind blowing details without mucking through the maths! Thank you!
+Following Feynman, thanks. I am glad you liked my video.
great explanation. worst music^^
Nice explanation of the Heisenberg uncertainty and Schroedinger's equation.
+Alexandru Gheorghe, thanks. Though, I plan on eventually having a separate video devoted just to Schrodinger’s equation, and also a separate video devoted to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.
Awesome video. I've been brushing up on solid state chemistry before grad school and this helped a lot in trying to visualise what i was learning.
This is the most timely and instructive video, like, ever.
I love all of your videos so much. It's making my class so much easier to understand.
You're doing some magic with your videos ! Absolutely loving it, keep on going !
Thanks.
This is the best quantum mechanics video in TH-cam by far
Thanks for that really great compliment.
Great explanation, the visuals, pacing, and music were all perfect. Even though I am still confused, I understood the wave-particle behavior much better.
Wow! Fantasti Video...!!!... I've read a lot of books covering this topic but THIS video seems to have made some obstacles much more clearer now! Thanks for your time you invest in these video, great animation, good narration, so well explained. I hope you keep up this excellent work!
This helped to fill in SO MANY gaps in my understanding (after reading numerous books about Quantum Mechanics and String Theory)!
Thank you for this wonderful production and very clear illustration of these complex concepts.
Thanks. Glad my video was helpful.
The books didn't make sense to you because the info is not true. There are no particles or physical matter. Nothing solid. Only Energy! So called particles are waves of Energy vibrating at different rates of frequencies. Infinite possibilities. An atom and all the sub atomic particles in an atom are empty space of Energy vibrating. The only reason your hand doesn't go through the table is because the table is vibrating at a similar rate as your body.
@@ChrisOakesCO Does that mean the 'strings' (in String Theory) are merely a way of describing those energy waves OR are they actually GENERATING those waves?
@@ParkinT If there's stings there waves, not solid matter. Do you know of anything that's solid? Even a rock or diamond made up of atoms. Atoms aren't solid an the sub atomic particles in atoms aren't solid either. They are all far apart from each other an moving around each other. I'm not saying this in a rude way, just saying there is no solid physical particles. All matter is condensed Energy.
Quantum is one of the toughest thing to understand or visualize.... You nailed it
I think this is one of the most beautiful videos about wavefunction. Thank you!
Thanks for the compliment about my video.
@@EugeneKhutoryansky You are welcome.
P.S. I think that would be very very useful a video about quantum field theory with your style!
Have a nice day 😊
That is on my list of topics for future videos. Thanks.
@@EugeneKhutoryansky 🔝 Thank you for the answer! Have a nice week-end 😊
I watched it... *IT WAS NICEEE* the way they explained :
1. superposition, one and two dimensional motion of particle . 2.The multivariable graph was pretty nice correlation.
3. And at last the music, that someone else could also exist in my room which i could not see !
It was really nice
Magnificent video, finally I think I understand the physical explanation behind the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.
Thanks, and I am glad to hear that my video was helpful.
Those videos are amazing, never stop making them!! You are at top 10 people i would like to meet in person!
+Marko Stojiljkovic, thanks for that really great compliment. Lots more videos are on their way.
That was an excellent visualization on Pauli's Exclusion principle.
Amazing work bruv, it makes it a lot easier to visualize
The best illustrations I have seen yet. steve kastl
Awesome clip Eugene, and very apt in relation to the recent discovery by LIGO. Great building blocks towards a clip on gravitational waves and the hypothetical particle that accompanies (interacts) with these waves. Although I will have to watch it several times for my old brain to catch up :). Thanks for your great work
Very nice visualization.
Wavefunction, as I understand, is extremely difficult to imagine and impossible to observe with experiments. But your video helped me to imagine with big WOW how the electron could be orbiting the nucleus in different orbitals.
Thanks for this wonderful work.
Wonderful example of the Schroedinger Equation. I am going to message the web link for this video to my daughter, so she better understands. She saw Minute Physics introduction to Quantum Mechanics and when I asked her at Thanksgiving what was Quantum Mechanics, she said it was about fire only being able to be certain colors. But Minute Physics did a really good job of explaining Special and General Relativity to kids. I think from the Minute Physics videos she understands better than from PBS Space Time.
+Feynstein100 They skip so much math in PBS Space Time that most kids can follow it. My daughter is 13 now, but when she was 12, she really understood the idea of black holes, and the event horizon from the PBS Space Time video presented by their former host, who moved his hands a lot when he talked. Physic Videos sometimes shows math equations, but is mostly understandable by kids. I watched Leonard Susskind's videos, where he derives General Relativity from scratch and the simplified. version from A Level Physics. I consider that to be adults. I didn't realize that if you know Tensor Calculus, you can solve General Relativity equations. Any electrical engineer, who is doing something serious with Maxwell's equation knows Tensor Calculus. So that there is actually a large body of people that can solve General Relativity problems.
+John Doe To be honest, if they actually work in electrical engineering and not as "connection engineers" taking applications and joining them together, then they do need Tensor Calculus and Maxwell's Equations. It's the difference between making $250,000 US and $100,000 US as an electrical engineer. Last year I earned $150K, so I am not really up there with people who do real electrical engineering. I just join applications together. Thank God for my mutual fund and so tick investments.
You are the best teacher in the world Ma'am you are so amazing all because of you I have started studying quantum physics 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for that really great compliment and I am glad that my videos have made a difference.
Wow. Darn good video and explanation. One of the best I've seen for a non-physicist. Thank you.
Thanks for the enlightenment. Fifty years ago in a first year physic class we learned to accept a foggy notion of what was going on.
Finally, a comprehensive illustration of quantum mechanical behaviors.
+TheBlundert4ker, thanks. I hope to have more videos on this topic in the near future.
I love this and the work that you all do! Very helpful and intuitive, thank you!
+Marco Mosri, thanks for the compliment.
that music made me feel so relax
An awesomely clear explanation of the wave function!!!
+David Caywood, thanks. I am glad you liked it.
Wow. I had most of my Quantum Physics fundamentals by 1989/90...then in tech school(90-94) some more ideas and Schrodinger’s equations... if I(we) had such videos I am sure my level of learning/understanding and interest would have jumped multiple times.
Stunningly beautiful visualisation. Love your videos. Keep them coming, please
You explain this in a simple way. Great job
+Rizki Tio, thanks. I am glad you liked my explanation.
I started studying physics back in 2004. God! quantum mechanics would be much more exciting if this video existed back then. Quantum Math converted to visual reality. What an amazing time to exist!

I like this! Good visualization of mathematical integration of multiple wave superposition and collapse of wave function, also relative to atomic structure, cool!
Thanks. I am glad you like my video.

كم من مرة سأشكركم على هذه الفيديوهات !!
My thanks to the creators of these beautifully produced videos with their clear and insightful explanations. Videos like this help to “blow the dust” away from outmoded methods of presenting these concepts.
I think that deducing the “Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle” from the wave nature of matter is the ONLY way it should be taught. The typical introduction to uncertainty with the “delta-x times delta-p >= h” stuff is unnecessarily puzzling and misleading to entry level students. It completely bypasses the chance to show that the “uncertainty” of measuring complimentary properties, like position and momentum, fall simply and elegantly out of wave analysis. It was many years after my initiation into QM that this was explained in a book written for the wide audience; it came to me like a beautiful revelation. 🦋 Teaching QM from a historic point of view has its place [In a history of science class perhaps!] but I think it is counterproductive and inefficient. It reinforces all the old ideas, assumptions and intuitions that humanbeings had and have about physical reality; intuitions that prevent students from understanding the principles of QM and prevented mankind from discovering these principles in the first place. I understand the historical reasons that it is called “Quantum Mechanics”, as it first presented the idea that energy could be “quantized”, but I think it is a shame that this label stuck as it doesn’t get to the core of the matter or the “core of matter” for that matter. [Sorry, I just couldn’t resist the word-play.] I think “Quantum Mechanics” should better be called something like: “Wave Physics” as all the “weird” behavior of QM can be derived from the mathematics of waves. I also think we should stop calling fundamental particles “particles” as this reinforces images of localized macroscopic objects like billiard balls 🎱⚽️🎾🏀🌎🤹🏻♂️and the like with their fixed pre-existing properties of location and momentum. I have begun to use the word “particulars” for these units of matter. I think it is a better word because it remains vague about properties but still contains the idea of countable individual identity.
