🕳️ Quantum Tunneling
A localized wave packet impinges on a chi barrier. Partially reflects (R) and tunnels (T).

What You're Seeing
The Purple Wave: A quantum wave packet traveling from left to right. The height shows the wave's amplitude (probability of finding energy at that location).
The Red Barrier: A finite chi-field potential wall (the "⚡ BARRIER ⚡" region). This is like a hill the wave must climb over or tunnel through.
What Happens: Watch as the wave packet hits the barrier. Part of it reflects back (bounces off), part tunnels through (quantum tunneling - passes through despite not having enough energy classically), and the metrics show Transmission (T), Reflection (R), and Conservation (T+R≈1).
Technical note: The visualization shows wave amplitude |E|² projected along the x-axis. The actual simulation runs in 3D, but we're showing a 1D "slice" for clarity.
