The efforts of most theoretical physicists of this century have been directed towards that branch of the physical science which is commonly called “Quantum Theory.” Physically, Quantum Theory was postulated because of a vast amount of physical evidence which led to the postulates of states, observables, superposition, and commutation relations. From these four postulates, all quantum mechanics follows.
