Kerry Browne: The following maple worksheet hydrogenvis_demo.mw is intended to be used by the instructor for demonstration purposes. Three functions are defined in this worksheet that allow you:

  1. Quickly generate static images of linear combinations of hydrogen atom orbitals
  2. Generate animations to better visualize the three dimensional structure of linear combinations of hydrogen atom orbitals
  3. Generate animations of the time dependence of linear combinations of hydrogen atom orbitals

Kerry Browne: The following Maple worksheet hydrogenvis_array.mw is intended to be used by the instructor for demonstration purposes. It utilizes the functions defined in hydrogenvis_demo.mw to generate an array displaying a selection of hydrogen atom orbitals.
