Transformational leadership theory is defined as inspiring followers through “broadening and elevating followers’ goals and providing them with confidence to perform beyond the expectations specified in the implicit or explicit exchange” (Shin and Zhou 2003‚ as cited in Dvir‚ Eden‚ Avolio‚ & Shamir‚ 2002). This paper intends to focus on the effect that transformational leadership has on individual performance. Dvir et al (2002) observed the Israel Defense Force and hypothesized that transformational

Quantum Numbers Quantum Numbers The Bohr model was a one-dimensional model that used one quantum number to describe the distribution of electrons in the atom. The only information that was important was the size of the orbit‚ which was described by the n quantum number. Schrödinger’s model allowed the electron to occupy three-dimensional space. It therefore required three coordinates‚ or three quantum numbers‚ to describe the orbitals in which electrons can be found. The three coordinates that

Whereas digital computers require data to be encoded into binary digits (bits)‚ each of which is always in one of two definite states (0 or 1)‚ quantum computation uses qubits (quantum bits)‚ which can be in superpositionsof states. A theoretical model is the quantum Turing machine‚ also known as the universal quantum computer
