Wave packet in Quantum Mechanics

edit
  • Free particle wave packet - plane wave solutions are not normalisable, general solution is a combination(superposition) of these solutions.
  • Fourier transform pair - wave functions in position and momentum basis.
  • particle to be localise in small region of space => some distribution in k-space and vice-versa.
  • Evolution of wave packet with time. Group and phase velocities.
  • Gaussian wave packet. Definition, evolution, properties and uncertainty relations.
  • Spreading of a wave packet.
