Probing student reasoning in relating relative phase and quantum phenomena
In quantum mechanics, probability amplitudes are complex numbers and the relative phases between the terms in superposition states have measurable effects. This article describes an investigation into sophomore- and junior-level students’ reasoning patterns in relating relative phases and real-world...
