Classical and quantum physics
Classical to quantum physics. Sequence of computer models showing the progression from classical to quantum physics. At top left, the movement of a classical particle, such as an electron, is shown. In classical physics, the position and trajectory of the particle can be precisely described, along with its energy. In quantum physics, the position and energy cannot be known at the same time. The particle is considered to be spread over a volume (progressively shown towards bottom right), with its position described by probabilities. It will also have wave properties: the colours show the varying phase of the wave. This model was created as an artwork by Professor Eric Heller

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the fascinating journey from classical to quantum physics, showcasing a sequence of computer models that depict this transition. At the top left, we witness the graceful movement of a classical particle, like an electron, where its position and trajectory can be precisely described along with its energy. However, as we delve into the realm of quantum physics, things take a mesmerizing turn. Intriguingly, in quantum physics, it becomes impossible to simultaneously know both the position and energy of a particle. Instead, this enigmatic particle is believed to exist spread over a volume as depicted progressively towards the bottom right. Its position is now described by probabilities rather than certainties. Moreover, this ethereal entity also exhibits wave properties beautifully illustrated through an array of vibrant colors representing varying phases. It's important to note that this stunning artwork was created by none other than Professor Eric Heller himself – an esteemed physicist who skillfully merges artistry with scientific exploration. Through meticulous simulation and mathematical modeling techniques showcased in this piece, he brings forth not only his expertise but also his artistic flair. This remarkable image serves as a testament to the duality between art and science while shedding light on one of nature's most profound mysteries – bridging classical mechanics with quantum theory. It stands as a symbol for groundbreaking research and theoretical advancements within these fields while captivating viewers with its abstract beauty and thought-provoking concepts.
