Answer by jensa for Extra energy in quantum tunneling
Short answer:Position and energy are not compatible observables, meaning you can not determine them both at the same time, much like position and momentum are non-compatible observables.Long answer:If...

One possible view on this is that while the average energy is given by $\int \psi^*\hat{H}\psi dV$, the actual energy value fluctuates in time around this value; the electron receives energy and gives...

Extra energy in quantum tunneling
In quantum tunneling, the probability of finding an electron inside the potential barrier is non zero . So we can actually find an electron which had an energy $E$ in a place where classically it...
