  2. Schrödinger picture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schrödinger_picture

    In physics, the Schrödinger picture or Schrödinger representation is a formulation of quantum mechanics in which the state vectors evolve in time, but the operators (observables and others) are mostly constant with respect to time (an exception is the Hamiltonian which may change if the potential changes).

  3. Interaction picture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interaction_picture

    By utilizing the interaction picture, one can use time-dependent perturbation theory to find the effect of H 1,I, [15]: 355ff e.g., in the derivation of Fermi's golden rule, [15]: 359–363 or the Dyson series [15]: 355–357 in quantum field theory: in 1947, Shin'ichirō Tomonaga and Julian Schwinger appreciated that covariant perturbation ...

  4. Dynamical pictures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamical_pictures

    Commutator relations may look different from in the Schrödinger picture, because of the time dependence of operators. For example, consider the operators x(t 1), x(t 2), p(t 1) and p(t 2). The time evolution of those operators depends on the Hamiltonian of the system. Considering the one-dimensional harmonic oscillator,

    Commutator relations may look different than in the Schrödinger picture, because of the time dependence of operators. For example, consider the operators x(t 1), x(t 2), p(t 1) and p(t 2). The time evolution of those operators depends on the Hamiltonian of the system.

  6. Developmental stage theories - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Developmental_stage_theories

    The development of the human mind is complex and a debated subject, and may take place in a continuous or discontinuous fashion. [4] Continuous development, like the height of a child, is measurable and quantitative, while discontinuous development is qualitative, like hair or skin color, where those traits fall only under a few specific phenotypes. [5]

  7. Visual thinking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_thinking

    Visual thinking, also called visual or spatial learning or picture thinking, is the phenomenon of thinking through visual processing. [1] Visual thinking has been described as seeing words as a series of pictures. [2] [3] It is common in approximately 60–65% of the general population. [1] "Real picture thinkers", those who use visual thinking ...

  8. Developmental lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Developmental_lines

    Developmental lines is a metaphor of Anna Freud from her developmental theory to stress the continuous and cumulative character of childhood development.It emphasises the interactions and interdependencies between maturational and environmental determinants in developmental steps.

  9. Quantization of the electromagnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantization_of_the...

    The energy content of this volume element at 5 km from the station is 2.1 × 10 −10 × 0.109 = 2.3 × 10 −11 J, which amounts to 3.4 × 10 14 photons per (). Since 3.4 × 10 14 > 1, quantum effects do not play a role. The waves emitted by this station are well-described by the classical limit and quantum mechanics is not needed.
