The quantum vacuum, often referred to simply as the "vacuum" in the context of quantum field theory, is a fundamental concept in modern physics. Contrary to the classical notion of a vacuum as an empty space devoid of matter, the quantum vacuum is a dynamic state filled with fluctuating energy and virtual particles that constantly pop in and out of existence.
