Quantum states with more energy than the lowest possible amount
In quantum mechanics, an excited state of a system is any quantum state of the system that has a higher energy than the ground state. Excitation refers to an increase in energy level above a chosen starting point, usually the ground state, but sometimes an already excited state. The temperature of a group of particles is indicative of the level of excitation (with the notable exception of systems ... Wikipedia
