The concept of wavefunction collapse, also known as quantum collapse or collapse of the wavefunction, is a fundamental aspect of quantum mechanics that describes the sudden transition of a quantum system from a superposition of multiple states to a single definite state upon measurement or observation. This collapse occurs probabilistically, with the outcome determined by the system’s wave function and the measurement process, and is a central feature of the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics.
