This web page illustrates the motion of a quantum wavepacket, using 3D animations. Basic concepts and phenomena are shown using simulations rather than complex mathematics, although the functional forms of the states are given. Motion of a free wavepacket, and a wavepacket in a box, an harmonic oscillator, an electric field, and a magnetic field are all described and shown.
