Science and the Sacred
The collapse of the wave function is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics that describes the transition of a quantum system from a state of superposition, where it can exist in multiple states simultaneously, to a single, definite state upon measurement. This phenomenon highlights the role of observation in determining the outcome of quantum events, leading to implications for understanding reality and the nature of indeterminacy in quantum systems.
congrats on reading the definition of collapse of the wave function. now let's actually learn it.
