One More Pearl

RANT#22: Here's a comparison of two sinusoidal wave packets. The first is a constant amplitude over seven waves and the second is a variable amplitude - these are the orange graphs. They are compared to a regular green sine wave cannot be a wave packet. Where the two coincide looks black. The fantastic feature is that these wave packets are generated from a simple exponential function that can be summed as shown over as many waves and at as many intensities as desired. If that simple function were the electric field of a photon these (orange) signals would be Bose-Einstein condensates.
