About My Project
The goal of my project is to research the known notions for momentum in a quantum system and analyze the different possible meanings that these notions can hold. To

Weekly Summary
Week 1
My first week as an REU participant was very exciting.! I met many other participants, staff, and my mentor. So far I have been receiving information from my mentor on the basis of my research topic.
Week 2
For the second week I studied the derivations of the Founier transform and momentum operator provided by my mentor. I feel that I can see a path of how to address my research topic during this week. I began my first steps into my final report and began the LaTex file.
My mentor introduced many different concepts to address for my project so far. I think the first idea I will try to research is relationships between the momentum operator and the guiding equation.
Week 3
