Santa is a quantum being. His probabilistic nature means he can be in every house at the same time on Christmas. This is why it's vitally important noone sees him. If he's observed the probabilities collapse and only one house gets presents.meow.social - the mastodon instance for creatures fluffy, scaly and otherwise
Born #onthisday in 1882, Max Born was one of the fundamental figures in the development of quantum mechanics. He was a mathematician, theoretical physicist and Nobel laureate.
Among the many mind-boggling things about quantum mechanics is Born's interpretation of the wave function ψ, known as the Born Rule [1]. According to the Born rule, if the wave function of the particle has the value ψ at some point x, then the probability of finding the particle between between x and x+dx is
P(x ≤ x ≤ x+dx) = |ψ|² dx
where |ψ|² is the probability density function for the particle's location.
