Psilab

With its intuitive design, less has to be explained, allowing you to explore quantum mechanics immediately.

Customize and run your own experiments by adding particles and barriers.

On the right is the simulation. To run the simulation, press the play button; the pause button will pause the simulation; and the rectangular stop button will reset the simulation. It can only be edited when the simulation is stopped. Below is a image of these buttons.

To add particles and edit other properties of the simulation, head to the Edit tab or press the following button. To learn more about how to edit the simulation, keep reading here.

Start Editing Simulation

To select a particle, click on it. The red outline shows that it is selected.

Once selected, clicking and dragging the particle will change its position. Clicking and dragging on the gray circle on the edge of the particle will change the position and rotation of the particle.

To draw potential barriers (walls), click and drag on empty space in the simulation. The thickness of the barriers and how much they reflect the wave packet can be changed by the Size and Hardness sliders on the Edit tab.

Click on the erase button to toggle the ability to remove walls.
