​

Titles

We support headings in the standard markdown format.

# Heading 1
## Heading 2

​

Text Formatting

We support most markdown formatting. Simply add **, _, or ~ around text to format it.

• You can also use bold and italic text.
• We do not support subscript/superscript text.

​

Links

You can add a link by wrapping text in [](). You would write [link to google](https://google.com) to link to google.

​

Lists

We support both ordered and unordered lists.

​

Unordered Lists

Use the - character to create an unordered list. For example:

Quantum mechanics is a complex field, but some of its key concepts include:

- **Wave-Particle Duality**: Particles, such as electrons and photons, exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties.
- **Quantization**: Certain properties, such as energy, are quantized, meaning they can only take on discrete values.
- **Uncertainty Principle**: Formulated by Werner Heisenberg, it states that certain pairs of physical properties, like position and momentum, cannot both be known to arbitrary precision.
- **Superposition**: A quantum system can exist in multiple states at once until it is measured.
- **Entanglement**: Particles can become entangled, meaning the state of one particle is directly related to the state of another, no matter the distance between them.

​

Ordered Lists

Use numbers followed by a period to create an ordered list. For example:

Quantum mechanics has a rich history, with key milestones including:

1. **Max Planck (1900)**: Introduced the concept of quantization of energy.
2. **Albert Einstein (1905)**: Explained the photoelectric effect using the concept of photons.
3. **Niels Bohr (1913)**: Developed the Bohr model of the atom.
4. **Werner Heisenberg (1927)**: Formulated the uncertainty principle.
5. **Erwin Schrödinger (1926)**: Developed wave mechanics and the Schrödinger equation.

Blockquotes

​

Singleline

To create a blockquote, add a > in front of a paragraph.

Dorothy followed her through many of the beautiful rooms in her castle.

​

Multiline

To create a blockquote, add a > in front of each paragraph.

Dorothy followed her through many of the beautiful rooms in her castle.

The Witch bade her clean the pots and kettles and sweep the floor and keep the fire fed with wood.

​

Emoji

Emoji are supported too, though since we render for print, these will appear in black and white rather than colour.

​

Equations

Be sure to use the $$ syntax to write multi-line equations in markdown. For example, you can write the quadratic formula like this:

The quadratic formula is:
$$
x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}
$$

Here’s a more advanced example mixing mixing the $$ and $ format, the latter can be used for in-line formatting:

$$
i\hbar \frac{\partial}{\partial t} \Psi(\mathbf{r}, t) = \hat{H} \Psi(\mathbf{r}, t)
$$

Where:
- $\Psi$ is the wave function of the system.
- $\hbar$ is the reduced Planck's constant.
- $\hat{H}$ is the Hamiltonian operator.

Where:

• $\Psi$ is the wave function of the system.
• $\hbar$ is the reduced Planck’s constant.
• $\hat{H}$ is the Hamiltonian operator.

Images

You can add images using the ![alt text](image_url) syntax. For example, you can write ![Wikipedia logo](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/63/Wikipedia-logo.png).

You can control image sizing using this syntax:

![Wikipedia logo](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/63/Wikipedia-logo.png){ width=20px height=20px }

​

Horizontal lines

You can use the standard markdown syntax for horizontal lines, which is three dashes:
