The description for the wave speed `c` is given in Lattice.js.

The lattice extends beyond the visible region, and damping is applied near the boundaries to minimize the effects of
reflection and artifacts around the edges.

Here is a schematic for the two-slit dimensions:

By using `?dev`, you can show the IdealInterferenceOverlay, which depicts d sin(θ) = mλ (theoretical maxima) and d sin(θ) = (m+1/2)λ (theoretical minima).

## The Final Screen: Diffraction
In the fourth screen, we use a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) in order to compute the diffraction pattern, see
