quantum indeterminacy
Quantum indeterminacy refers to the inherent unpredictability and uncertainty associated with quantum systems, where properties such as position, momentum, or energy cannot be simultaneously measured with perfect accuracy. Instead, the behavior of particles is described by probability distributions, highlighting the fundamental, probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics.
