Summary[edit]
| Description | (a) A walker in a circular corral of radius R = 14.3 mm. Trajectories of increasing length are colour-coded according to the droplet’s local speed (mm/s). The duration of the trajectory presented in the fourth panel is approximately 21 min. (b) Probability distribution of the walker’s position corresponds roughly to the amplitude of the corral’s Faraday wave mode. |

| Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | Pilot wave |
| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | The picture serves to illustrate how chaotic nonlinear behaviour of a walker gives rise to emergent statistical patterns equivalent to the quantum mechanical wave function. |
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
The trajectory and probability distribution are very complex and as such hard to recreate. |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | The picture has been edited from its original form to contain less information and will only be used in a handful of articles. |
