Nonclassical Physics Beyond Newton's View

Animations

• Anna and Bob in their passing ships (Figs. 1.9 and 1.10).
   
• View Anna's round-trip to Planet X, Figure 1.12, according to Anna, to Bob and to Carl, and see how the Twin Paradox is resolved.
   
• To see how particle-in-a-box wave functions depend on position (Figure 4.9) and time, click here.
   
• The traveling wave shown at right represents a plane matter wave, as in Figure 3.11. Click here to see Gaussian pulses with different phase and group velocities, with and without dispersion, represented in Figures 5.16 and 5.18.
   
• Figures 7.18 and 7.21, different examples of the quantum rules of angular momentum addition, are shown here.
   
• Figure 9.1 shows pairs of equal-energy states of two isolated "atoms" separating into molecular states of higher and lower energy as the atoms draw near. Click here to see an animated version.
