Home/Breathing Mexican hatMexican hat times cos(t)Equation: z = (1 - (x^2 + y^2)/8) * exp(-(x^2 + y^2)/8) * cos(t)When cos(t) changes sign, the central peak becomes a well. The graph is a single spatial mode oscillating in time.Pair it with the static Mexican hat to see that t is a scalar, not a radial phase shift.Related surfacesMexican hatz = (1 - (x^2 + y^2)/8) * exp(-(x^2 + y^2)/8)Pulsing peakz = 10 * exp(-(x^2 + y^2)/10) * (1 + 0.4 * sin(t * 2))Breathing saddlez = sin(t) * x * y / 5
