What is Quantum Physics? A Guide for Aspiring Physicists at Chandigarh University

Introduction Quantum physics is one of the most fascinating and rapidly growing fields in science. For students pursuing a B.Sc. in Physics at Chandigarh University , understanding quantum physics is essential for staying ahead in this evolving discipline. This article will explore the basics of quantum physics, its significance, and how Chandigarh University's program equips students to excel in this field. What is Quantum Physics? Definition and Basics Quantum physics is the branch of science that studies the behavior of matter and energy at the smallest scales—such as atoms and subatomic particles. Unlike classical physics, which explains macroscopic phenomena like motion and gravity, quantum physics focuses on phenomena that are often counterintuitive, like particles existing in multiple states simultaneously (superposition) or being connected across distances (entanglement). Key Principles Wave-Particle Duality : Particles like electrons can behave both as particles and waves....
