In classical mechanics, energy can take on any value. In quantum mechanics, energy is quantized, meaning it can only take on certain discrete values. These values are unique to a particle or system and depend on the properties of the system and its external constraints.
This video loop shows the result of an experiment in which two configurations of a particle system are alternated. These configurations are generated independently using the same set of parameters, and then displayed by morphing. The configurations are dispersed in space by a burst of energy, and the experiment allows us to travel through the evolution of the system over time.
