Quantum Tunneling: How Particles Pass Through 'Impossible' Barriers
Quantum tunneling, a cornerstone of quantum mechanics, enables particles to traverse classically insurmountable barriers, playing a pivotal role in phenomena like Hawking radiation from black holes. Stephen Hawking proposed that virtual particle pairs near a black hole's event horizon allow one particle to escape, emitting radiation and causing the black hole to evaporate, reshaping our understanding of black hole thermodynamics. Leo Esaki's dis…
