One of the fundamental features of quantum physics is the ‘wave-particle duality’, which refers to the fact that, depending on the experiment or type of observation, a system can exhibit either particle- or wave-like behaviour.
The following video introduces this section’s concepts (and takes it a step further, in arguing that the question of whether an electron is a particle or a wave is actually quite a meaningless one).
