The QM Superposition program displays the time evolution of the position-space wave function. It is distributed as part of a zip file that contains the ready-to-run (compiled) code, as well as additional documentation, exercises, and data files. Unzip the distribution and double click the qm_superposition.jar file which will run the program if Java is installed. The default wave function shows a two-state superposition of harmonic oscillator states. Other configurations can be observed by loading data files using the File | Load XML menu item.
QM Superposition 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.

The QM Superposition program is distributed in this file. The qm_superposition.jar file contains a compiled (read-to-use) version of the QM Superposition program and can be run by double-clicking on the jar file if you have Java installed. The program displays the time evolution of the position-space wave function. The default wave function is a two-state
superposition of harmonic oscillator states.
