phenomena like superposition

Superposition is a fundamental principle of quantum mechanics where a quantum system can exist in multiple states simultaneously until it is measured. This principle leads to the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics, where the act of measurement collapses the system into one of the possible states.

superposition

Entanglement is a quantum phenomenon where particles become interconnected such that the state of one instantly influences the state of another, regardless of distance. This non-local interaction challenges classical intuitions about separability and locality, playing a crucial role in quantum computing and quantum cryptography.
