a: wave function ~
b: bell curve

What:

"As a subatomic particle moves (an electron, photon, muon, boson) its position cannot be known with absolute certainty, so quantum mechanics supplies a wave function to explain where it it. This wave function is like a statistical bell curve predicting its position with varying certainty as you increase standard deviations from the mean."
