It appears in a end page of a book published in 1956, named as "Our Friend Atom", that describes the benefits of the atom. Here is the end page:
Can anyone tell me what this equation is?
AI Thread Summary
The equation in question relates to quantum harmonic oscillator wavefunctions, as indicated in the book "Our Friend Atom" published in 1956. The discussion emphasizes that by examining the plots of the function, one can identify these wavefunctions. A reference link is provided for further exploration of the first four quantum harmonic oscillator wavefunctions. The conversation highlights the educational value of understanding these concepts in the context of atomic benefits. Overall, the focus is on clarifying the nature of the equation and its significance in quantum physics.

Those are quantum harmonic oscillator wavefunctions.
Look here for the first 4.

Thank you so much!Khashishi said:
i want to just test a linear generator with galvanometer , the magnet is N28 and the wire (Cu) is of 0.6mm thikness and 10m long , but galvanometer dont show anthing ,
The core is PLA material (3d printed)
The magnet size if 28mm * 10mm * 5mm
Assume that this is a case where by sheer coincidence, two sources of coherent single-frequency EM wave pulses with equal duration are both fired in opposing directions, with both carrying the same frequency and amplitude and orientation. These two waves meet head-on while moving in opposing directions, and their phases are precisely offset by 180 degrees so that each trough of one wave meets with the crest of the other. This should be true for both the electric and magnetic components of...
