For today’s recreational coding exercise, we will look at quantum mechanical systems, in particular, the Schrodinger-Poisson equations. We will create a simulation for the evolution of a wavefunction under its self-potential. Such a system may describe certain superfluids/Bose-Einstein condensate or exotic dark matter.
You may find the accompanying Python code on GitHub.
Before diving in, below is a gif of what running our simulation looks like:
