quantum states
Quantum states refer to the unique set of properties that define the behavior and characteristics of a quantum system. They describe the fundamental aspects of particles, such as their position, momentum, spin, and energy, which can exist in multiple simultaneous states until observed or measured. These states are represented by mathematical entities called wave functions, which provide probabilities for different outcomes when measurements are made.
