Lecture

Gaussian Wave Packets: Theory and Applications

Description

This lecture covers the theory and applications of Gaussian wave packets, focusing on their propagation in different potentials. The instructor explains the concept of Thawed Gaussian Approximation (TGA) and its use in describing electronic spectra of molecules. The lecture also delves into the local harmonic approximation and its significance in quantum dynamics. Various examples and mathematical treatments are provided to illustrate the behavior of Gaussian wave packets in different scenarios.
