Repository containing the code and progress for the numerical methods lab of the Quantum Physics lab "Numerical Solution of 1D Schrödinger equation for a Gaussian wave packet".

Numerical Solution of 1D Schrödinger equation for a Gaussian wave packet

How to start?

Ensure that you are using Python 3.9 and the following libraries:

• matplotlib, a library used for data visualization, plotting and animating the packet.
• numpy, that provides the mathematical ground to work in python, including arrays or constants (pi or exp).
• tkinter, used for the GUI creation.

If you are using pip, be sure to install them prior to using the code by inputing in the Command Prompt:

pip install <package_name>

As well ensure that the python.exe is in the Windows PATH (you can check this by running the command python on the cmd).

Instructions of use

GUI is in development process. However, to run the code for each of the exercises run the the correspondent modules with each of the exercises.
