Examples of wave function

wave function
Convergence is monitored through the norm of the wavefunction.
So it doesn't matter that some region of spacetime is one-way "disconnected" causally and that part of the wavefunction lies within this region.
The wavefunction might be the acoustic velocity potential for a compressible fluid surrounding the obstacle or perhaps a potential for an electromagnetic field.
Here, the total wavefunction is written as a product of the wave functions of the two electrons, which are now distinguishable.
Experimentally, they demonstrated periodic hopping motion when the valve was activated periodically with a square wavefunction.
An imaginary par t of the nuclear potential is introduced to describe the life-time of the wavefunction inside the nuclear well.
The envelope wavefunction is a complex quantity and the quadratic dispersion, in general, consists of two parts: the phase dispersion and the modulus dispersion.
Nevertheless, the wavefunction obtained is only an approximation, and this should be compared with classical approximate methods, which are often faster than exact simulations.
These calculations rely on expansions of the electronic wavefunction in a basis of eigenstates.
There simply is no reality to be described until an act of measurement collapses the wavefunction.
A coarse-grained measurement enables us to get these diffusion constants once the wavefunction has spread enough.
In quantum mechanics, a wavefunction embodies the state of the system, in momentum or position representation.
The dynamics of the wavefunction is compared to the time evolution of the classical phase space structure in the bottom row.
Numerical results for the magnitude of the wavefunction have been presented but no information about the supercurrent-phase relation was included [2, 3].
The second equation, (5.20), characterizes how the wavefunction evolves in time.
