Wavepacket

This script simulates the time evolution of a quantum mechanical wavepacket on the unit square with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Spatial discretization is with a Chebyshev-tau spectral method and time discretization is with a second order Crank-Nicholson method. Platforms: Matlab

The Ejs Wave Packet model displays the motion of an approximate wave packet. The simulation allows an arbitrarily wave packet to be created. The default dispersion relation, with the frequency equal to the wavenumber, results in a wavepacket that does not spread. The amplitude, maximum and... Platforms: Mac
