These are 3D intensity plots of quantum harmonic oscillator.
These shapes are related to the atomic orbitals I've done before but are wavefunctions from a different potential. Instead of just showing static plots, these show quantum mechanical superpositions. Try adjusting the intensity with the scroll wheel and selecting slice from the controls to get a clearer view.
Shift + scroll wheel will zoom in and out.
What kind of plots are you looking for? I was trying my had at animation with this demo, but it can be easily modified to generate static images. You can also generate 2d cross-sections as well.

good!
amazing animations, thank you for sharing this class of wonderful animations
