superpositionnoun(quantum mechanics) The situation in quantum mechanics where two or more quantum states are added together (superposed) to yield another valid quantum state.
supercoherencenoun(physics) A form of coherence (between quantum states) postulated by supersymmetry
superspacenoun(physics) A coordinate space invoked in supersymmetry
einselectionnoun(quantum mechanics) A process claimed to explain wavefunction collapse and the emergence of classical descriptions of reality from quantum descriptions. In this approach, classicality is described as an emergent property induced in open quantum systems by their environments.

superradiancenoun(physics) The cooperative enhancement of spontaneous emission by constructive interatomic interference, producing an incoherent form of radiation.
superactionnounsupersymmetric quantum action
supermultipletnoun(physics) A set of quantum mechanical states, each of which has the same value for a certain quantum number (or numbers) but different values for another related one
