The Packet of an Uncertain Gaussian
Sign in to track this film in your collection or want list.
Presents, through computer animation, a display of the time-dependent Gaussian wave function describing a free nonrelativistic particle, as well as a display of the supporting mathematical concepts necessary for the development of the spreading packet. Introduces the properties of a one-dimensional free particle wave function, the superposition of momentum eigenfunctions to form a wave packet in p-space, and Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.
