Quantum Measurement

Full Title

Quantum Measurement is the process of obtaining information about a quantum system, such as its position or momentum. This process involves interacting with the system and causing it to collapse from a superposition of states to a single definite state.

Context

First kind of quantum measurement

The first kind of quantum measurement, also known as the projective measurement, is a measurement that completely collapses the quantum system into one of its possible states. This type of measurement is irreversible and provides a definite outcome.
