optics interference ripple tank program Description

The Optics Interference program simulates a ripple tank by showing the intensity of waves produced by a point source. Adding multiple point sources creates easily observable interference patterns showing constructive and destructive interference. Users can add point sources, move them around, and change their wavelength. The Optics Interference program uses the algorithm described in Section 9.8 of "An Introduction to Computer Simulatuon Methods" by H. Gould, J. Tobochnik, and W. Christian. Optics Inteference is distributed as a ready-to-run (compiled) Java archive. Double clicking the optics_interference.jar file will run the program if Java is installed.
