Curves of constructive and destructive interference from two point sources

Near and far interference field of two coherent radiation sources. This applet allows to visualize and study Curves of constructive and destructive interference. By changing the distance b between the sources, as well as the wavelength λ. In these cases, the selected interference lines (actually curves) are hyperbolas.
