About this ebook
Quantum mechanics? Just hearing the name, we get sick. It
seems to be something complicated (and is), but here I will try
to explain this theory in simple terms. However, this does not
mean that you will go to understand quantum mechanics. As
Niels Bohr said, "who says he understands quantum mechanics,
you have not understood it." Does it look like something
strange, doesn't it? Yes so. Quantum mechanics challenges our
common sense.
Quantum mechanics is the theory that describes the behavior
of the universe at the microscopic level; are composed of
atoms and subatomic particles and quantum mechanics explains
the behavior of these basic units. Hence, the name: Mechanical
(explain behavior) quantum (the microscopic world, the
quantum).
There are three explanations for this schizophrenic behavior of
nature at the level of atoms and subatomic particles, but none
of them are officially accepted by the scientific community. We
can say that the most important is that quantum mechanics
works, and explanations may be to philosophers.

Quantum mechanics is the theory that describes the behavior of the universe at the microscopic level; are composed of atoms and subatomic particles and quantum mechanics explains the behavior of these basic units.

INTRODUCTION
In the world of our scale - planets, humans, ants - could follow Newton's laws: if we know the position of something, direction, and speed, we can determine its past and future position (ignoring the variables, of course). The billiard balls follow a predictable behavior and everything else also seems to respect the laws of motion and Einstein's Theory of Relativity.
Quantum mechanics can determine with complete accuracy the microcosms behavior, but no one can explain this behavior. We can say that we enjoyed the success that the theory had (all our digital technology is based on quantum mechanics, like many other relevant techniques), but the microcosms behave in such a strange way that our shared sense not able to understand.
Well, what about the microscopic world? How to behave atoms and subatomic particles?
