... each outcome is. The uncertainty principle can be described through a simple experiment where a board with two slits is placed between a light bulb and a solid screen. There is an interference between electron particles and instead of two slits against the screen are displayed, multiple slits are shown, some diffused. Through wave-mechanics this shows that the waves from the slits are not ... light), nothing else can escape this gravitational pull. This region is what is known as a black hole. Due to the uncertainty of quantum m! echanics it is, however, possible for an electron or atom...

... few jobs for mathematics graduates. He wanted Hawking to attend University College, Oxford. It wasn't possible to read mathematics there at the time. Then Hawking decided to study physics and chemistry. Despite his headmaster's advice to wait till the next year, Hawking was awarded a scholarship after taking the examinations. When he went to Oxford University he thought that university was ridiculously ... ...
