After a short break due to a busy period in my offline life, here I am, back with a new post on quantum mechanics. In the previous episodes, I have described how a wave (or actually light) could also possess

Wave-particle duality aka the central pillar of quantum mechanics
Wave-particle duality aka the central pillar of quantum mechanics
In two of my last posts on quantum mechanics, I introduced the concept of the wave-particle duality. I have discussed that light (or actually waves) can exhibit the behavior of a particle (see here) and

My quantum mechanics series on Steemit is probably the slowest of all my current Steemit projects. Anyways, I finally decided to go back to it and move on. In the last two posts, I described the first

Quantum mechanics lessons on Steemit - 10 - the Bohr model of the atom
In my last quantum mechanics post, I introduced the planetary model of the atom that was proposed by Rutherford at the beginning of the 20th century. I also explained, at the end of the post, why it was

After a week of a well-deserved break, I am now back on tracks to discuss physics again. Instead of chatting about particle physics or cosmology, I decided this time to move on with my series of posts

Quantum mechanics lessons on Steemit - 6 - the mysteries of the black bodies
In my previous article, I highlighted and explained one of the greatest mysteries in physics of the end of the 19th century and beginning of the 20th century: the understanding of the atomic spectra. But
