Description

The quantum wavefunction of a particle in a 3D box of dimensions Lx, Ly and Lz. The wavenumbers are:

  • nx=2
  • ny=2
  • nz=2

This plot is arranged as a number of slices parallel to the x-y plane, increasing z.

White represents the highest value of ψ(r), black the lowest and grey zero.
