Quantum numbers: a classical interpretation

by

Quantum mechanics defines the spatial orientation of electrons in atoms only in terms of the probabilistic values associated with Schrödinger wave equation. In other words in a quantum system Schrödinger wave equation plays the role of Newtonian laws in that it predicts the future position or momentum of a electron in terms of a probability … Read more

Pauli’s Exclusion Principal: a classical interpretation

by

The Pauli Exclusion Principle is the quantum mechanical principle that says that two identical fermions (particles with half-integer spin) cannot occupy the same quantum state simultaneously. Presently it is defined in the terminology of quantum mechanics as when the wave function for two identical fermions is anti-symmetric with respect to exchange of the particles. In … Read more
