The principle of indeterminacy, also known as Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle, is a fundamental tenet of quantum mechanics that states that certain pairs of physical properties, such as position and momentum, cannot be simultaneously measured with arbitrary precision. Formulated by Werner Heisenberg, the principle arises from the wave-particle duality of quantum systems and places fundamental limits on the predictability of physical phenomena at the atomic and subatomic levels.
