Animation: 2 interfering electron wave-packets

Copyright for the animation by Hansm, licensed with GNU FDL. This animation was rendered with POVray 3.5 (http://www.povray.org) and tools from the netpbm package by Jef Poskanzer and others.

The green plane is the x-y-plane, where two (non-interacting) electron wave-packets meet. The vertical direction shows the real part of Psi(x,y). The semi-transparent white plane in the top shows the density of detection probability , i.e, |Psi(x,y)|², as blue spots. The blue in the middle is the same again.
