A metallic quantum dot deposited on a silicon substrate can hold any small number N = 0,1,2,3,... of individual electrons. Let us denote by [N) the state of the quantum dot where it holds exactly N electrons. Suppose the actual state () of the dot is the following quantum superposition: 1 |P) = To (10) + V2|1) +12) +13) +14)). 9 + (a) Obtain the expectation value («* |M|") of the number of electrons in this Ф Ń state. Justify your answer. (b) The number of electrons is measured. What is the most likely value?
