QHO-coherent3-amplitudesqueezed2dB-animation-color.gif(300 × 200 pixels, file size: 308 KB, MIME type: image/gif, looped, 120 frames, 6.0 s)

Summary

Description
English: Animation of the quantum wave function of a squeezed coherent state in a Quantum harmonic oscillator with α=3 and 2dB of squeezing. The probability distribution is drawn along the ordinate, while the phase is encoded by color. The gaussian wave packet oscillates in position and width such that the amplitude is defined most sharply.
