QM Position Measurement Program
written by
Wolfgang Christian
The QM Position Measurement program displays the time evolution of the position-space wave function and can be used to simulate the quantum-mechanical measurement of position. It is distributed as a ready-to-run (compiled) Java archive. Double clicking the qm_measurement_x.jar file will run the program if Java is installed. The default wave function is an equal-mix four-state superposition in the infinite square well.
QM Position Measurement is one of 18 Open Source Physics programs that model time-dependent quantum mechanics using an energy eigenstate expansion. Other programs provide additional visualizations. They can be found by searching ComPADRE for Open Source Physics, OSP, or Superposition. Please note that this resource requires at least version 1.5 of Java.
