Hello there,

I have to do an essay for my university class, and want to use virtual particles (or virtual eletrons)... And i want to know if people here have good sources (good universities) about this issue.

Thanks all

hello cliffreich! welcome to pf! :smile:

if you must, a good start is do a tag search on this forum for "virtual particles"

but i strongly recommend that (if you don't already know all about them) you choose something easier and less mathematical :wink:

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
