electron wave function [i′lek‚trän ‚wāv ‚fəŋk·shən]

(quantum mechanics)

Function of the spin orientation and position of one or more electrons, specifying the dynamical state of the electrons; the square of the function's modulus gives the probability per unit volume of finding electrons at a given position.
