Summary

Description
Français : Le paquet d'ondes d'une particule quantique peut être divisé (non-montré) en deux paquets qui sont ensuite recombinés (montré). Dans ce cas on peut observer l'interférence d'une particule avec elle-même. La couleur (jaune vert bleu) indique la phase de la fonction d'onde , son intensité indique .

In this case the interference of the particle with itself can be observed. The color (yellow green blue) indicates the phase of the wave function , its intensity indicates . The Python file which generated this animation is here.
