Advanced concepts in quantum mechanics / Giampiero Esposito [and three others].
Esposito, Giampiero.| Call Number | 530.12 |
| Author | Esposito, Giampiero, author. |
| Title | Advanced concepts in quantum mechanics / Giampiero Esposito [and three others]. |
| Physical Description | 1 online resource (xii, 384 pages) : digital, PDF file(s). |
| Notes | Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015). |
| Contents | Introduction: The need for a quantum theory -- Experimental foundations of quantum theory -- Waves and particles -- Schrödinger picture, heisenberg picture and probabilistic aspects -- Integrating the equations of motion -- Elementary applications: 1-dimensional problems -- Elementary applications: multi-dimensional problems -- Coherent states and related formalism -- Introduction to spin -- Symmetries in quantum mechanics -- Approximation methods. |
| Summary | Introducing a geometric view of fundamental physics, starting from quantum mechanics and its experimental foundations, this book is ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in quantum mechanics and mathematical physics. Focusing on structural issues and geometric ideas, this book guides readers from the concepts of classical mechanics to those of quantum mechanics. The book features an original presentation of classical mechanics, with the choice of topics motivated by the subsequent development of quantum mechanics, especially wave equations, Poisson brackets and harmonic oscillators. It also presents new treatments of waves and particles and the symmetries in quantum mechanics, as well as extensive coverage of the experimental foundations. |
