Weird science There's a long, long history of puzzled physicists showing that the wave function must be a bizarre object. Quantum entanglement is a direct result of the properties of the wave ...

The fuzzy quantum shape that describes the speed or location of a single particle, its wave function, has now been directly measured in the laboratory, giving this mathematical concept a small ...

The wave function is a mathematical description of the external attributes of a particle: its position, momentum, and rotational characteristics.

Physicists from the Canadian Institute for Measurement Standards are the first to measure a quantum mechanical wave function. And it only took 88 years from the formulation of Schroedinger’s equation!

Some interpretations of quantum mechanics propose that our entire universe is described by a single universal wave function that constantly splits and multiplies.

Prolate Spheroidal Wave Functions (PSWFs): Special functions optimised for representing band‐limited signals, providing an orthogonal basis with excellent time–frequency localisation.
