This result stems from a fresh estimate for an entity characterising these neutrinos, known as wave packets, which provide information on both their position and their momentum.
In the multiphoton regime it can be shown that the wave packets are created predominantly close to the maximum intensity of the pulse and thus interfere constructively only if the intensity is close to a channel closing.
If one considers excitation in the time domain one can assume that electron wave packets are created periodically at the field cycle maxima.
The asymmetric temporal shape of electron wave packets emitted through an autoionizing state further reveals the chiral character of strongly correlated electronic dynamics.
The key was to split this electron into two wave packets.
As the two wave packets continued to travel around the orbit, they spread out and contracted in a rhythmic fashion governed by the laws of quantum mechanics.
As the wave packets spread they encountered one another and interfered, much like the light emanating from Young's slits.
In this case, each photon is effectively split into two «wave packets» which then interfere with one another.
The researchers found that the wave packets could combine even if their orbits were as large as the transistors on a computer chip (Physical Review Letters, vol 75, p 1252).

As in the zonal wind animation, Rossby wave packets are clearly recognizable, as are a host of smaller coherent vortices.
Also recognizable are Rossby wave packets especially on the equatorial jet, with retrograde propagation and phase lines that have the characteristic chevron shape indicating angular momentum transport into the jet, as is observed to occur.
Particles are considered to be indistinguishable if their wave packets overlap significantly.

Not exact matches

The immediate reference of the term is to the modern physicist's conviction that light, previously understood as waves, must now also be thought of as quanta, discrete packets of energy, and that these apparently contradictory theories are really complementary.
This led to his discovery of the photon, a discrete packet of electromagnetic energy, and to the realization that such a packet must be both a wave and a particle.
