National Quantum Mission  What is Quantum Physics? Quantum physics is a branch of science that describes nature at the smallest scales of energy levels of atoms and subatomic particles.  Key Concepts of Quantum Physics Quantization: Energy levels in atoms are quantized; energy can only be absorbed or emitted in discrete packets called quanta or photons. Wave-Particle Duality: Particles like electrons exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties. Superposition: A particle can exist in multiple states at once until measured. Entanglement: Particles become interconnected such that the state of one instantly influences the other, no matter the distance between them. India's National Quantum Mission Announcement: Launched by the Government of India.
