whats the differnce between phase and group velocity??
from what i understand (and this could be flawed) is that group velocity is the velocity of the wave packets being sent out by the object (or particle) and phase velocity is velocity of the wavepeaks which actually travel faster than the group velocity.
can you explain or point out a place which explaisn this??
