iggisv9t / Incoherent-Light-Simulation

A simulator of propagation of incoherent light .

Incoherent-Light-Simulation

This simulator works computing the field created by point sources with random phases and randomly placed inside a circle.

Time averaging is done using Monte Carlo integration.

Then, the simulation is represented and animated with matplotlib.

Installation

Just clone or download this repo. The package requeriments are:

1. numpy
2. matplotlib
3. progressbar

Simulations

To perform the simulations, just run from the command prompt the corresponding Python scripts:

python simulation_femtoseconds.py

python simulation_picoseconds.py

python simulation_microseconds.py

Also take a look at the simulations of the double slit experiment with incoherent and coherent light
