Q.2-The wave function
The quantity with which quantum mechanics is concerned is the wave function ψ. it is
the wave function which changes when the “matter-wave propagates”.
However, the wave function ψ itself has no physical interpretation . But it is highly
significant in presence of the particle.
Calculation of |Ψ|² at a particular place at a particular time gives the probability of
finding the particle there at that time.
The probability of finding a photon within a given volume of the beam is proportional to
the square of the amplitude of the wave associated with this beam.
The wave function may be real or it may be a complex function. If it is complex, then it
may be expressed as , ψ = a + ib,where a, b belongs to R.Complex conjugate of the wave
function is given by ψ*= a – ib.
Αnd |ψ|² = ψ*ψ =(a+ib )(a-ib)

, = (a)² - (ib)² = (a)²+(b)²
The probability P(r, t) dV to find a particle within a small volume dV around a point in
space with coordinate r at some instant
of time t is
where ψ(r, t) is the wave function associated with the particle .
The probability of finding a particle
somewhere in a volume V of space is
|ψ|² is proportional to probability density P of finding the particle described by ψ, the
integral of |ψ|² over all space must be finite because the particle must be present
somewhere in given space , if ψ is infinite the probability density P is also be infinite
which is not possible. it can't be negative and complex.
Ιf,
particle does not exist at all
