Quantum Postulates Explained Visually — Finally Understand the Rules In this unique video, Dr. Jacob Hudis breaks down the five postulates of quantum mechanics using animations, original applets, and clear, intuitive explanations. This is not your typical textbook approach — this is quantum mechanics brought to life, built from the ground up to help you actually understand what the postulates mean. We cover: • The wavefunction and how it describes quantum systems • All five postulates of quantum mechanics, explained step by step with engaging visuals and animations — a powerful and accessible lesson you won't want to miss • Superposition, measurement, eigenstates, and wavefunction collapse • Position and momentum bases, and how they're connected • The meaning of Hilbert space, operators, and eigenvalues in real terms • How to interpret atomic orbitals and their complex structures in 3D This is one of the best lessons you'll find if you're trying to wrap your head around quantum mechanics. Whether you're a student, a teacher, or just curious about the quantum world, this video will leave you with new insights and a deeper understanding of the subject. 🌟 Why this video is different: I’m Dr. Jacob Hudis, a physicist and tutor with a PhD in Condensed Matter Physics. I’ve taught quantum mechanics at the university level and have spent years helping students master this subject. I created the visuals, wrote the lessons, and designed this video to teach quantum in a way that actually makes sense. 💻 AcePhysics.org — I also offer tutoring (online or in-person) in quantum mechanics, physics, AP Physics, and calculus.
