Chapter 6: Correlation Functions and Spectra
Spectral method for calculating eigenstates
A.
Propagation of wave function in harmonic potential
B.
Harmonic eigenfunctions obtained by Fourier transform of wavepacket
C. Harmonic Eigenfunctions being created by the spectral method:
The eigenfunctions are obtained by calculating the Fourier transform of the moving wavepacket at the appropriate energy.
The colors represent the phase of the state that is being extracted.
