Abstract
The absolute square of the normalized position-space wave function of the electron in a hydrogen atom is interpreted as the probability distribution for observations of the position of the electron. This is only a thought experiment, since the electron’s position cannot be observed. The first observation of the momentum distribution of the electron directly verifies the probability interpretation of the momentum-space wave function.
