Quantum Physics

I bet an average educated person probably heard about Quantum Physics - the physics of the sub-atomic world.

At first, when I heard about Quantum Physics, I was a "detractor" or so to say, a critic for this gimmick, which I thought to be only about theories and no scientific explanation to support it.

But, after I started reading (and got addicted to it), I realized Quantum Physics is the real thing. Our generation should probably be thankful to the geniuses of the past 19th century because of their contributions - Max Planck, Albert Einstein, Neils Bohr, and so on.

When I started reading about Quantum Physics, I was really amazed of it's development, especially about Max Planck's initial ideas which led him to the Planck's constant. Glad that he did not gave up on his initial theory after his experiments from assumed light as a wave that later persuaded him to "initially" change it (light) to a "quantized" energy to simply support his theory. I think that was the birth of Quantum Physics. For centuries, it was thought that Light is has all the characteristics of a wave alone, until Planck came, where he stated that Light particles (late named "photons" ) were radiated in quanta.

So here we go, the applications of Quantum Physics now are actually amazing.

I wondered before how did they started the Periodic Table of Elements, only to know that Quantum Physics was the foundation of it. Modern machines in the industry and medical fields benefits from the development pf Quantum Physics.

The Electron Microscope, MRI, EEG are all the products of Quantum Physics. Of course, Quantum Physics is a broad knowledge yet to be discovered and "fully" understood. The debates continues up to this day, simply due to the empirical nature of the theorized ideas because of the sub-atomic essence of Quantum Physics.

The Higgs boson's existence or non-existence (which in turn, realized the construction of the most expensive scientific instrument ever made - The Large Hadron Collider. This might ultimately explain the theory of our universe.

Till next blog. Probably I'm gonna update this...
