In quantum mechanics, for particles in a region of space where
no forces act, the Schrödinger equation admits solutions
known as wave packets. By virtue of not being constrained to boundary conditions, the energy of these particles
is not quantized.
In the image, the direction of motion is along the green strip. The vertical shows the real part of Psi(x,y). .

interfering electron wave-packets.
