Ah, obviously. Thanks for the help, you cleared a lot of things up for me.

Thanks for the replies, now it actually starts to make sense. Regarding your reply, blue_leaf77, I generally understand your approach but am wondering what exactly I have to write for ⟨x|p⟩. Would it be fine to just write it as the inner product \begin{equation} \langle x | p \rangle = \hat{X}...

Heads up, I only recently got into quantum mechanics and don't feel like I got a solid grasp on the material yet. 1. Homework Statement Given is the wave function of a free particle in one dimension: \begin{equation} \psi(x,0) = \left( \frac{2}{\pi a^2} \right)^{1/4} e^{i k_0 x} e^{-x^2/a^2}...
