Hydrogen Atom Orbitals

The electron orbitals of the hydrogen atom describe the wave-like behavior of an electron in atom and they determine the probability to find it in a particular space region. Mathematically the orbitals are determined by the hydrogen atom wave functions of its energy eigenstates and the wave functions themselves are determined as the solution to the quantum mechanical Schroedinger equation.

This app visualizes the electron orbitals of the hydrogen atom in 3D by drawing the cross-section surfaces of the electron probability density in OpenGL and using the Marching Cubes algorithm.

Features:

- Select the electron orbital to visualize by specifying the quantum number n, l and m, or pick the random one.

- Change the discretization step size.

- Choose the total probability to find electron inside the drawn orbital surface.

- Zoom and rotate the orbital with your fingers.

氢原子的电子轨道描述原子中电子的波样行为和它们确定的概率找到它在一个特定的空间区域。数学上，轨道是由它的能量本征态的氢原子波函数和本身被确定为解决量子力学薛定谔方程中的波函数来确定。

此应用通过绘制在OpenGL电子概率密度的横截面的表面，并使用移动立方体算法可视化3D中的氢原子的电子轨道。

特征：

- 选择电子轨道通过指定量子数n，l和m来可视化，或者挑随机之一。

- 改变离散化步长。

- 选择总概率找到绘制轨道面内的电子。

- 缩放和旋转轨道与你的手指。
