is: the association between the wavefunction of a particle and the probability of finding that particle in a given region of space at a particular time.
states: that if a particle moving in one dimension has the wavefunction
then the probability of finding the particle in a small region
around
at time
is proportional to
If the wavefunction is normalized, then the probability is equal to
