QUANTUMSTATE

Quantum state

In quantum physics, quantum state refers to the state of a quantum system. A quantum state is given as a vector in a Hilbert space, called the state vector. The state vector theoretically contains statistical information about the quantum system. For example, when dealing with the energy spectrum of the electron in a hydrogen atom, the relevant state vector is identified by the principal quantum number <math>\{ n \} </math>. For a more complicated case, consider Bohm formulation of EPR experiment, where the state vector
