Summary

Here are 3 spirals

x = radius^t*cos(t)
y = radius^t*sin(t)

where angle t in radians is changing from tMin to tMax.

Difference between spirals :

• radius r > 1 ( escapes to infinity )
• radius r = 1 ( rotation on unit circle )
• radius r < 1 ( attracts to center z = 0 )

It can be a model^[2] of dynamics under complex quadratic polynomial ${\displaystyle f_{0}(z)=z^{2}}$
