What the hell are "quantum particles"?

• Koshkin 3y ago
  I guess, this is a shorthand for "particles studied in quantum physics."

  In this case, they mean particles they have hit with a laser to split into superposition, so "quantum particles" = "particles in superposition".

  objects described by wavefunctions

  Just a layman but whenever I read that, I interpret it as "particles exhibiting quantum phenomena", like superposition or entanglement. This would be unlike classical particles which does not exhibit these effects.
