Weird science There's a long, long history of puzzled physicists showing that the wave function must be a bizarre object. Quantum entanglement is a direct result of the properties of the wave ...

Wavelets get around this restriction because these functions have shapes that limit their oscillations. You can create a new image in a wavelet domain instead of the strict frequency domain by ...

The fuzzy quantum shape that describes the speed or location of a single particle, its wave function, has now been directly measured in the laboratory, giving this mathematical concept a small ...

That blue, pixelated image, ladies and gentlemen, is the very first image of an atom’s electron orbital structure. In other words, you’re looking at the first picture of an atom’s wave ...

Some interpretations of quantum mechanics propose that our entire universe is described by a single universal wave function that constantly splits and multiplies.

The wave function is a mathematical description of the external attributes of a particle: its position, momentum, and rotational characteristics.

Physicists from the Canadian Institute for Measurement Standards are the first to measure a quantum mechanical wave function. And it only took 88 years from the formulation of Schroedinger’s equation!

The wave function they calculated proved accurate, so next they took on a giant 19,200-dimensional state. The results yielded wave functions with 90 percent accuracy.

We have designed an adaptive essentially nonoscillatory (ENO)-wavelet transform for approximating discontinuous functions without oscillations near the discontinuities. Our approach is to apply the ...

Prolate Spheroidal Wave Functions (PSWFs): Special functions optimised for representing band‐limited signals, providing an orthogonal basis with excellent time–frequency localisation.

At this point we have the necessary framework to combine all these concepts together into the wavelet energy absorption (WEA) method.
