Faynman Diagrams

Quantum Mechanics is hard to understand as the subatomic world plays by different rules from the classical as particles are both wave and particle, the former existing when unobserved and the latter, when observed. Now that we know Alice in Wonderland lives, Richard Feynman's radical notion of using diagrams to graphically show how subatomic particles interact would not only change how man viewed quantum mechanics but also how mankind viewed the world.

Wave functions of the electron in a hydrogen atom at different energy levels. Quantum mechanics cannot predict the exact location of a particle in space, only the probability of finding it at different locations.[1] The brighter areas represent a higher probability of finding the electron.
