Almost a century ago, German physicist Werner Heisenberg realised the laws of quantum mechanics placed some fundamental limits on how accurately we can measure certain properties of microscopic ...
In quantum mechanics, it is impossible to know both exactly where you are and exactly where you are going. This idea, known as Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle, has been a key part of studying the ...
