What shape do electron probability fields have when they are unbound?

1 Answer

Answer :

FireMadeFlesh What a fascinating question. An unbound electron does not exhibit quantized energy levels. However, it does exhibit the wave/particle duality that photons and other unbound particles do. That doesn’t close the loop on answering this question, but it’s all I can bring to the party, and this is a party I want to attend. :-)
