Prolate Spheroidal Wave Functions (PSWFs): Special functions optimised for representing band‐limited signals, providing an orthogonal basis with excellent time–frequency localisation.

Prolate spheroidal wave functions (PSWFs) and their discrete counterparts – the discrete prolate spheroidal sequences (DPSSs) – have emerged as essential tools in the analysis of band ...

Quantum mechanics has a concept called a "wave function." It's incredibly important because it holds all the measurable information about a particle (or group of particles) within it. In practice ...

The fuzzy quantum shape that describes the speed or location of a single particle, its wave function, has now been directly measured in the laboratory, giving this mathematical concept a small ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract This communication deals with the general theory of obtaining numerical electronic wave functions for the stationary states of atoms and ...

Physicists from the Canadian Institute for Measurement Standards are the first to measure a quantum mechanical wave function. And it only took 88 years from the formulation of Schroedinger’s equation!

The wave function is a mathematical description of the external attributes of a particle: its position, momentum, and rotational characteristics.
