Does quantum mechanics really need to be complex?
Why can't we just use real wavefunctions?

idk once you've seen shit like "the coupling of spin-1/2 wavefunctions to the electromagnetic field is straight up necessary for the system to be gauge invariant" you're a lot less susceptible to "but how do we knooooooooooooow" rhetoric

Chemical Bond Overlap Descriptors From Multiconfiguration Wavefunctions
The chemical bond is a fundamental concept in chemistry, and various models and descriptors have evolved since the advent of quantum mechanics. This study extends the overlap density and its topologi...

Stupid character limits, anywho think of Hilbert space as an abstract mathematical playground where quantum physics hangs around and bullies kids for lunch money, except the kids are wavefunctions

Like on the one hand, sure, there is empty space between your hand and the table you're touching because the electrons are not localized and the interactions of their wavefunctions don't happen in a solid-block-meeting-solid-block way. But also space is never really "empty", so what does that mean?

There is a second class of wavefunctions that aren't equivalent to real wavefunctions and that are those that differ by a local phase

Another way of seeing this is that for real wavefunctions, as well as for wavefunctions with global phases the probability current is zero.
They might as well be real and one can consider Psi as an equivalence class of all wavefunctions differing only by a global phase (a ray)

Remake of an old animation about quantum tunnelling in the time domain.
🧪⚛️💡
A few details:
* The incident and reflected wavefunctions interfere, creating fringes when it hits the barrier.
* Even when far away from the barrier, the wavefunction is slowly broadening.

Collapsed wavefunctions are flatter and fit better on a printed page anyway.

My methods are madness
I take quantum physics
Formulate wavefunctions
To watch them collapse
Calculate path integrals
To hang them with strings
Create axioms from math
To trace out the Laplacian
All as entropy increases
& Maxwell's demon laughs

🚀 Strong correlation is the Everest of quantum chemistry. Next to the coupled cluster highway, the multireference molecular terrain is underserved—gravel roads and promenades. With Orbformer, we're building a new infrastructure by marrying neural network wavefunctions with cost amortization at scale
