I am very interested in quantum physics, however, I really don't know how to sculpt a project around it. I want to be original: I am interested specifically in quantum computing, quantum encryption, quantum biology, and also the limitations of quantum physics (i.e. NP-complete problems.) Any ideas or advice for possible projects?
Best Regards.

A. Neumaier said:You need to learn a huge amount. Start with what Wikipedia says about the concepts you are interested in, and then find out from Wikipedia (and, after a while, also from other sources to guard against certain misrepresentations in wikiedia) about every concept used in their explanations, until this process stabilizes.
Quantum Physics is a branch of physics that studies the behavior and interactions of subatomic particles, such as electrons and photons, at a microscopic level. It is concerned with understanding the fundamental laws that govern the behavior of matter and energy on a quantum level.
Quantum Physics has had a significant impact on our understanding of the universe and has led to groundbreaking discoveries in technology, medicine, and other scientific fields. It has also challenged our traditional notions of reality and has opened up new avenues for exploration and innovation.
Some common applications of Quantum Physics include transistors in electronic devices, lasers in medical equipment, and cryptography for secure communication. It also plays a crucial role in fields such as quantum computing, quantum cryptography, and quantum teleportation.
Some key principles of Quantum Physics include superposition, which states that particles can exist in multiple states simultaneously, and uncertainty, which states that we cannot know both the position and momentum of a particle with absolute certainty. Other principles include entanglement, wave-particle duality, and quantization.
Scientists use a variety of methods and tools to conduct research in Quantum Physics, including mathematical models, experiments, and simulations. They also collaborate with other scientists and utilize advanced technologies, such as particle accelerators and quantum computers, to study and understand the complex phenomena of the quantum world.
