What is the physical dimension/unit of Probability current?
So thank you everyone! Conclusion: the dimension of the probability current is [1/time]? These physical dimensions used to help me give interpretations to different physical quantities. But in QM, that's not (yet) the case. :)- EhrEnFeest

What is the physical dimension/unit of Probability current?
This is a nice question to answer. It took me some time but I think: ∫ψ∗ψdτ=1 has no dimensions. But as you integrate over space, and in this case this is one-dimensional, the dimension of ψ∗ψ is multiplied with [length]. And then ψ has a dimension of [(1/length)^½]?- EhrEnFeest
