CYD

I'm a college student majoring in physics, with interests in computer science, mathematics, and purple llamas. I'll be working on some articles in physics (particularly quantum mechanics, quantum field theory, and the history of 20th century physics.)

Articles I've helped edit:

• black hole
• bra-ket notation
• Paul Dirac
• Pauli exclusion principle
• Schrodingers cat
• quantum mechanics

Artices I've started:

• Feynman diagram
• identical particles
• Lagrangian
• Pauli matrices
• quantum entanglement
• Wolfgang Ernst Pauli

19/12: It's winter break, and I don't have anything better to do, so I'll be working whipping the articles related to quantum mechanics and quantum computing into shape. I'm thinking about the following articles:

quantum entanglement, EPR paradox, [Bell basis]?, decoherence?, [Shors algorithm]?, [Grovers algorithm]?, [quantum error correction]?, [quantum cryptography]?, [path integral]?, spin, [perturbation theory]?, entropy, spinor

There's a lot of space to fill, and I'm not sure I have the breadth of knowledge to start writing some of the articles - particularly spin, [Shors algorithm]? and [quantum error correction]?. I'm also not sure about my plan of attack, particularly where to insert an introduction on the use of Pauli matrices and spinors for modelling spin systems, which quite a lot of this depends on.

If anyone has any thoughts about organization and priorities, please drop a comment below.

Hi CYD, and welcome! Thanks for you contributions in the physics area. There's a lot to do there :-) --AxelBoldt

Hi CYD - I've checked out your work and it's of a very high standard - congrats :) So an extra big welcome to the 'pedia. Regards - ManningBartlett

Hello, CYD and welcome - we need good physicists!
