A Complex Gaussian Function

Requires a Wolfram Notebook System
Interact on desktop, mobile and cloud with the free Wolfram Player or other Wolfram Language products.
This Demonstration shows different ways to visualize a complex Gaussian function of the form . The upper panels show the modulus
and the argument
separately, while the lower left panel shows the real and imaginary parts. In the bottom right panel, the shape is the modulus and the coloring corresponds to the argument (the range 0 to
varies from red to magenta).
