Description

In student interviews, none of the users got to see an interference pattern on the Single Particles screen unless prompted. To help fix this, I'd like to increase the 'Fast' speed on this screen.

The purpose of the 'Fast' time speed on the Single Particles screen is to see a pattern of hits build up more quickly. With the current time speed value, it still takes over a minute to see a pattern emerging. I don't see any drawbacks to doing this, since 'Fast' mode is not meant to be used for making out the details of the wave behavior.

I'll self-assign this and then ask @samreid for a review.
