Title: Electron Density - these images show the quantum states where an electron may reside


While working at the Space Sciences division, I did some work for the Physical Chemistry division to visualize quantum electron levels for atoms and simple molecules. The data was created on a CRAY-2, with the dimensions of 96x96x96 double precision data. An isopotential surface code developed at Space Sciences was used to create the isoplanar surfaces shown in these visualizations.
