Quantum Theory is a scientific framework that explores the smallest particles and how they behave. It suggests that at the tiniest scales, like atoms and particles, things don't always work like we expect. Instead of definite positions and speeds, these particles follow probabilities. Quantum Theory has a few key principles. First, particles can exist in multiple states at once, called superposition. Second, particles are connected in strange ways, known as entanglement. Third, particles act like both waves and particles, which is called wave-particle duality. Fourth, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle says we can't know a particle's exact position and speed at the same time. These principles help explain the behaviour of tiny particles and have led to many modern technologies. This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex theories and principles in the field of quantum mechanics. Quantum theory is an upcoming field of science that has undergone rapid development over the past few decades. This book is meant for students who are looking for an elaborate reference text on quantum theory.
