Overview
Physics: Quantum simulates the quantum mechanical wavefunction of an electron. Unlike other simulations that only calculate stationary states of a "particle in a box", this app simulates the change in time for a one-dimensional wavefunction.
You can set a number of starting conditions, such as a superposition of particle-in-a-box states, or a highly localized wavepacket. Then start the simulation to witness the changing wavefunction in a quantum well.
You have control over many visualization options. You can show the real and imaginary parts of the wavefunction independently, along with the probability distribution--as shown in most textbooks--or you can also show a 3D representation of the wavefunction in the real and imaginary plane.
Physics: Quantum is safe for use by everyone 3 years and older, but is best used as a supplement for someone learning quantum mechanics, or for someone who wants to gain a better intuitive understanding of the dynamics of Schrodinger's equation.
