what is phase space
Phase space. In physics, phase space is a concept which uniï¬es classical (Hamiltonian) mechanics. and quantum mechanics; in mathematics, phase space is a concept which uniï¬es. symplectic geometry with harmonic analysis and PDE. In classical mechanics, the phase space is the space of all possible states of a physical.
Advanced Classical Mechanics/Phase Space. Phase space refers to the plotting of both a particle's momentum and position on a two dimensional graph. It also refers to the tracking of N particles in a 2N dimensional space. In many cases, the coordinates used are the canonical variables of Hamiltonian mechanics.
