This interpretation dates to the 1920s, when physicist Max Born argued that the wave function, represented by the Greek letter psi, is a useful mathematical tool.

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 ...

The Drop-Wave function is multimodal and highly complex. The second plot above shows the function on a smaller input domain, to illustrate its characteristic features. The function is usually ...
