Quantum
Interactive quantum physics simulations: solve the equations of quantum mechanics in your browser and watch wave functions evolve, from Bose-Einstein condensates to matter waves.
Magneto-Optical Trap: Catch Atoms with Light, Then Let Them Fly
Simulate a rubidium magneto-optical trap atom by atom: tune the lasers and the magnetic field, load atoms from the vapour, switch the beams off to watch them fly and fall, and measure the temperature by release and recapture.
Open the simulation →Bose-Einstein Condensates: Solve the Gross-Pitaevskii Equation and Watch One Expand
Find the ground state of a rubidium condensate by solving the Gross-Pitaevskii equation in your browser, then switch off the trap and watch it expand. See the Thomas-Fermi profile, the famous aspect-ratio flip and the phase of the wave function.
