uncertainty principle

• Principe fondamental de la mécanique quantique selon lequel il est impossible de connaître simultanément et avec une précision absolue la position exacte et la quantité de mouvement exacte d'une particule.

A fundamental principle in quantum mechanics stating that it is impossible to simultaneously know both the exact position and exact momentum of a particle with absolute precision.

   A fundamental theory in quantum mechanics stating that it is impossible to simultaneously know both the exact position and exact momentum of a particle.

   principe d'incertitude

   • The uncertainty principle limits how precisely we can measure a particle's location.
   • Heisenberg formulated the uncertainty principle in 1927.
   • According to the uncertainty principle, the more accurately you know a particle's position, the less accurately you know its momentum.
