Visualizing Quantum Mechanical Phenomena
Johannes Schmidt-Ehrenberg, Hans‐Christian Hege · 1999
In this paper we discuss several ways to visualize stationary and non-stationary quantum mechanical systems. We demonstrate an approach for the quantitative interpretation of probability density isovalues which yields a reasonable correlation between isosurfaces for different timesteps. As an intuitive quantity for visualizing the momentum of a quantum system we pro-pose the probability flow density, which can be treated by vector field visu-alization techniques. Finally, we discuss the visualization of non-stationary systems by a sequence of single timestep images. 1
