Those are gaussian distributions regarding location probability?

not necessarily gaussian, no. The probability density is a function of (r,θ,φ)

That's the coordinate system, not the location probability?

to talk about location you need to specify an origin .. eg. to talk about gaussian's you need to say Gaussian 'about what'

Looks more Lorentzian in cross section.

it's just constant slices perp to the y axis. the angle just makes it look a bit funny

Interesting, do the energy eigenstates have any temperature dependency?

no, by definition.. the wave function can recieve temperature corrections but that's not going on here

Ok, makes sense. I noticed that there was no temperature term.
