What is "amplitudes"

Usage examples of "amplitudes".

Rather, he believed in a variant of the old Copenhagen quantum interpretation -- that every event in the universe arises out of a vast sea of interacting probability amplitudes.

The fact that each person helps to make the universe happen by acting as an observer, collapsing the probability amplitudes and .

Probability amplitudes are collapsing like quantum dominoes all around.

In clumsy but ultimately useful language, we can rephrase this by saying that the amplitudes of all waves that pass through the region are zero, exactly.

But if we know the amplitudes exactly, the uncertainty principle implies that the rate of change of the amplitudes is completely uncertain and can take on essentially any value.

But if the amplitudes change, this means that in the next moment they will no longer be zero, even though the region of space is still "empty.

It's linearly polarized and it's transmitting a set of moving pulses restricted to two different amplitudes.

They strapped each man into a huge human milkshake apparatus that vibrated the body at tremendous amplitudes and bombarded it with high-energy sound, some of it at excruciating frequencies.

It didn't shake his head about as violently, but the amplitudes were more rapid.
