Moving Through Parallel Worlds To Achieve Your Dreams- Quantum Mechanics

Quantum Mechanics defined in the words of Kevin Michel- "The more we delve into quantum mechanics the stranger the world becomes; appreciating this strangeness of the world, whilst still operating in that which you now consider reality, will be the foundation for shifting the current trajectory of your life from ordinary to extraordinary. It is the Tao of mixing this cosmic weirdness with the practical and physical, which will allow you to move, moment by moment, through parallel worlds to achieve your dreams". Quantum mechanics (QM; also known as quantum physics, quantum theory, the wave mechanical model, or matrix mechanics), including quantum field theory, is a fundamental theory in physics which describes nature at the smallest scales of energy levels of atoms and subatomic particles. Classical physics (the physics existing before quantum mechanics) is a bundle of fundamental and basic theories which elaborates nature at ordinary (macroscopic) scale. Most of the theories in classical physics can be derived and proved from quantum mechanics as an approximation valid at bigger (macroscopic) scale. Quantum mechanics distinguished from classical physics in that: energy, momentum, angular momentum, and other quantities of a system are constraint to discrete values (quantization), objects have characteristics of both particles and waves while being neither one of those (wave-particle duality), and there are boundaries to the precision with which quantities can exist in nature (uncertainty principle). 

Quantum mechanics slowly and gradually arose from theories to explain observations which could not be accustomed with classical physics, such as Max Planck's solution in 1900 to the black-body radiation problem, and from the  coherence between energy and frequency in Albert Einstein's 1905 paper which explained the photoelectric effect. Early quantum theory was profoundly re-conceived in the mid-1920s by Erwin Schrödinger, Werner Heisenberg, Max Born and others. The modern theory is composed in various specially build mathematical formalism. In one of them, a mathematical function, the wave function, provides information about the probability amplitude of position, momentum, and other physical properties of a particle. Important systems of quantum theory include quantum chemistry, quantum optics, quantum computing, superconducting magnets, light-emitting diodes, and the laser, the transistor and semiconductors such as the microprocessor, medical and research imaging such as magnetic resonance imaging and electron microscopy. Explanations for many biological and physical phenomena are rooted in the nature of the chemical bond, most notably the macro-molecule DNA.
