The Heisenberg picture is a way of describing how quantum systems change over time. Unlike the more common Schrödinger picture, where the system's "state" evolves, in the Heisenberg picture, the "observables" (things you can measure) are what change, while the system's state remains fixed. It offers an alternative, yet equivalent, mathematical framework for understanding quantum phenomena.
