research in quantum mechanics

Research in quantum mechanics explores the fundamental behavior of matter and energy at the smallest scales, such as atoms and subatomic particles. It challenges traditional notions of how particles behave, introducing concepts like superposition, where particles exist in multiple states simultaneously, and entanglement, where particles become linked and affect each other regardless of distance. This field has led to breakthroughs in technology, from transistors and lasers to quantum computers, and raises profound questions about the nature of reality, measurement, and information, pushing the boundaries of both physics and philosophy.
