Quantum First Steps

Quantum physics sounds intimidating, but its first steps are concrete experiments with strange results. Follow the historical trail: the experiments that broke classical physics, the ideas that replaced them, and the nucleus where it all gets practical.

Module 1: The cracks in classical physics

The photoelectric effect and the atom that couldn't exist — classically.
