Quantum Physics
Quantum physics a reality! Do you get uptight when you think of quantum physics and start to hyper ventilate? Excited? Or do you have the same reaction to calculus, differential equations and even biology? Maybe you are a person that does not even think quantum physics is a creditable science, such as Einstein and Newton's work. Well let's get a grip on our self here and determine how quantum physics compares to regular physics.
Physics, in general, describes how matter interacts with other matter. Quantum physics is the physics of the minuscule particles of matter and energy. Quantum physics refers to electrons that surround the tiny nucleus of an atom and their subatomic levels of actions.
Newtonian physics speaks of larger matter such as orbiting planets or the energy transformation during a jogging run! This makes the largest difference between quantum physics and regular (Newtonian) physics. Quantum physics, the world of the incredibly small, and Newtonian the larger more gross matter. Quantum physics attempts to explain the actions of particles like electrons, protons and neutrons. Quantum physics even explains the particles that make up these particles! So what we learned years ago in high school was not completely true. Electrons do not orbit nor can they be compared to planets.
Electrons in motion form blurred, phantom like fog around the nucleus. Protons and neutrons are made of three quarks each with its own individuality and one of three colors. Quantum physics takes us even deeper to the even smaller gluons that hold it all together and are referred to in the original term "glueballs" (not very high brow name for them!) Quantum physics is explained by complex math because these subatomic levels get very bizarre and strange where quantum probabilities and organized chaos becomes the norm. To see the exact position and speed of an electron you have to bump other particles off of it. Which means you have just changed the electrons velocity, so, what you thought you had is now useless!?!
Quantum physics gives us the statistical probabilities of the electrons' position in a given moment. And with this we can better learn the bases of the Universe we exist in! Through quantum physics we have come closer to understanding the Black Holes where regular physics could not take us!
Quantum physics brings us into an age of extraordinary understanding of our self and the very nature of our existence and the reason of our being!
