Heisenberg Matrix Mechanics

Heisenberg Matrix Mechanics is an early formulation of quantum physics describing how particles like electrons behave. Instead of imagining particles as tiny dots with precise paths, it uses matrices—arrays of numbers—to represent their possible states and properties. These matrices show that certain measurements, like position and momentum, cannot be precisely known at the same time, reflecting inherent uncertainties. This approach shifts focus from imagining particles moving along specific paths to understanding their probabilities and interactions through mathematical structures, highlighting that at quantum scales, nature behaves fundamentally differently from everyday experiences.
