DESCRIPTION

Harmonic Oscillator (harmosc1.mpg). The wave function at t = 0 has the form Y (x,0) = A exp[-x 2 /10 2 ] V(x) = ½ (x/50) 2 & starting v = 0 Which direction is the force? What will the wave function do? Estimate E. Harmonic Oscillator (harmosc1.mpg). Harmonic Oscillator (harmosc1.mpg). - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

TRANSCRIPT

Page 1: Harmonic Oscillator  (harmosc1.mpg)

Harmonic Oscillator (harmosc1.mpg)The wave function at t = 0 has the form

(x,0) = A exp[-x2/102]

V(x) = ½ (x/50)2 & starting v = 0

Which direction is the force?

What will the wave function do?

Estimate E.

Why doesn’t ||2 change with t?

Does change with t?

If used (x,0) = A exp[-x2/112], would ||2 change with t?

Harmonic Oscillator (harmoscr.mpg)The wave function at t = 0 has the form

(x,0) = A exp[-x2/102]

V(x) = ½ (x/50)2 & starting v = 0

Only the real part of in this movie

What is the real part of ? The imaginary part?

Why is the solution a function of x times a function of t?
