This example shows some numerical simulations (left) and experimental results (right) for a flying Qubit sample made in a

(Simulations: T. Bautze et al. to be submitted to Phys. Rev. B). In this example, particular attention was paid to designing a realistic
model for the confining potential seen by the electrons so that rather subtle aspects of the experiments could be reproduce. Such type of
"numerical experiments" can not only be used to interpret the experimental data but also as an aid in designing the sample geometry or in the choice of
