Zitterbewegung is a term derived from German that translates to "trembling motion" or "jittery motion." It refers to a phenomenon in quantum mechanics, specifically in the context of relativistic quantum mechanics. The concept primarily arises in the study of the behavior of electrons as described by the Dirac equation, which accounts for both wave-like and particle-like properties of particles.
