Quantum Mechanics

How matter and light behave at the smallest scales, what that behavior means, and how it is put to use.

  • Entanglement Foundations
    Completed the course on quantum entanglement and Bell's theorem: the EPR argument, hidden variables and locality, Bell's theorem, the experiments that tested it, why entanglement cannot send signals, quantum teleportation, and decoherence. 0 holders 1 course
  • Quantum Interpretations Foundations
    Completed the course on interpretations of quantum mechanics: the measurement problem, Copenhagen, many worlds, pilot wave theory, objective collapse, QBism and relational views, decoherence, and how to judge claims about consciousness and quantum mysticism. 0 holders 1 course
  • Quantum Mechanics Foundations
    Completed the introductory course on quantum mechanics: quantization, wave particle duality and the double slit, the wavefunction and probability, superposition and measurement, uncertainty, spin and the exclusion principle, tunneling, and why the everyday world looks classical. 1 holder 1 course
