论文摘要
通过交互式仿真和可视化使量子机械方程式和概念栩栩如生,可以增强学习和教学。但是,图形可视化几乎总是表现出一组硬编码功能,而相应的基于文本的代码则提供了更高的灵活性,但以陡峭的学习曲线或时间投资为代价。我们介绍了量子作曲家,该量子作曲家可以通过与图形可连接的节点进行交互来构建,扩展或探索量子机械模拟,每个节点与物理概念,数学操作,可视化等相对应。课程,学生项目和研究环境中的视觉探索。
Making quantum mechanical equations and concepts come to life through interactive simulation and visualization are commonplace for augmenting learning and teaching. However, graphical visualizations nearly always exhibit a set of hard-coded functionalities while corresponding text-based codes offer a higher degree of flexibility at the expense of steep learning curves or time investments. We introduce Quantum Composer, which allows the user to build, expand, or explore quantum mechanical simulations by interacting with graphically connectable nodes, each corresponding to a physical concept, mathematical operation, visualization, etc. Abstracting away numerical and programming details while at the same time retaining accessibility, emphasis on understanding, and rapid feedback mechanisms, we illustrate through a series of examples its open-ended applicability in both introductory and advanced quantum mechanics courses, student projects, and for visual exploration within research environments.
