  2. Precision tests of QED - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precision_tests_of_QED

    The difference between the electron's cyclotron frequency and its spin precession frequency in a magnetic field is proportional to g−2. An extremely high precision measurement of the quantized energies of the cyclotron orbits, or Landau levels , of the electron, compared to the quantized energies of the electron's two possible spin ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matter_wave

    The relationship between frequency (proportional to energy) and wavenumber or velocity (proportional to momentum) is called a dispersion relation. Light waves in a vacuum have linear dispersion relation between frequency: ω = c k {\displaystyle \omega =ck} .

  4. Measurement in quantum mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measurement_in_quantum...

    Quantum state tomography is a process by which, given a set of data representing the results of quantum measurements, a quantum state consistent with those measurement results is computed. [50] It is named by analogy with tomography, the reconstruction of three-dimensional images from slices taken through them, as in a CT scan.

    They found no difference, increasing the upper limit to / =. [27] Already before, Alväger et al. (1964) at the CERN Proton Synchrotron executed a time of flight measurement to test the Newtonian momentum relations for light, being valid in the so-called emission theory. In this experiment, gamma rays were produced in the decay of 6-GeV pions ...

  6. Measurements of neutrino speed - Wikipedia

    According to the latter mass value and the formula for relativistic energy, relative speed differences between light and neutrinos are smaller at high energies, and should arise as indicated in the figure on the right. Time-of-flight measurements conducted so far investigated neutrinos of energy above 10 MeV.

    summed over all allowed initial and final states leading to the energy and momentum being observed. [2] Here, E is measured with respect to the Fermi level E F, and E k with respect to vacuum so = + where , the work function, is the energy difference between the two referent levels. The work function is material, surface orientation, and ...

  8. Wavenumber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavenumber

    where ν is the frequency of the wave, λ is the wavelength, ω = 2πν is the angular frequency of the wave, and v p is the phase velocity of the wave. The dependence of the wavenumber on the frequency (or more commonly the frequency on the wavenumber) is known as a dispersion relation.

  9. Observable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observable

    The relation between the state of a quantum system and the value of an observable requires some linear algebra for its description. In the mathematical formulation of quantum mechanics , up to a phase constant , pure states are given by non-zero vectors in a Hilbert space V .
