Superposition
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Look up superposition in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
The basic idea of superposition is that an object or event can be spanned across multiple realities or universes. When combined, these multiple, unique, pan-dimensional segments of the object or event, make up parts of its superposition. Thus, an object or event's superposition is a type of summation of all of its instances across parallel universes or even all probable and possible states of existence.
This all-encompassing concept of superposition fits in with current principles of string theory, quantum mechanics, and relativistic mechanics. It has been derived and modified from earlier uses of the word which are linked to below.
The term superposition can have several meanings:
- Used to describe how sound and light waves combine.
- Quantum superposition
- Law of superposition in geology and archaeology
- Superposition principle applies to linear systems of algebraic equations, linear differential equations, or systems of linear differential equations. Two important classes of quantities that occur in linear systems are Vector Fields and Time-Varying Signals.
- Superposition calculus, used for equational first-order reasoning
- Superposition theorem, in electronics.
