Abstract

The bra and ket notation introduced by Dirac and the dimensional analysis are two powerful tools for the physicist. Curiously, almost nothing is said about connections between these two topics in the literature. We show here that bras and kets have dimensions. This could help students to grasp a better comprehension of this abstract notation.

Why This Paper Matters

  • This paper contributes to the Quantum Simulation research area in the Quantum Articles archive.
  • It adds a 2020 reference point for readers tracking recent quantum research.
  • The bra and ket notation introduced by Dirac and the dimensional analysis are two powerful tools for the physicist.
