-Phase factors $e^{i \theta(\vec x,t)}$, like they appear in [[theories:canonical_quantum_mechanics|quantum mechanics]],​ are just complex numbers with amplitude $1$. Therefore, we can picture them as points on a circle with radius $1$:+Phase factors $e^{i \theta(\vec x,t)}$, like they appear in [[theories:quantum_mechanics:​canonical|quantum mechanics]],​ are just complex numbers with amplitude $1$.

 The wave function that describes an electron has a specific phase $\Psi(\vec x,t)= |\Psi(\vec x,t)|e^{i \theta(\vec x,t)}$ at each point $\vec x$ at any given moment $t$. Each such phase $\theta$ can be represented by a dot on the unit circle. The wave function that describes an electron has a specific phase $\Psi(\vec x,t)= |\Psi(\vec x,t)|e^{i \theta(\vec x,t)}$ at each point $\vec x$ at any given moment $t$.
