Book Synopsis Problems in Quantum Mechanics by : Gordon Leslie Squires

Download or read book Problems in Quantum Mechanics written by Gordon Leslie Squires and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1995-03-16 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many students find quantum mechanics conceptually difficult when they first encounter the subject. In this book, the postulates and key applications of quantum mechanics are well illustrated by means of a carefully chosen set of problems, complete with detailed, step-by-step solutions. Beginning with a chapter on orders of magnitude, a variety of topics are then covered, including the mathematical foundations of quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's equation, angular momentum, the hydrogen atom, the harmonic oscillator, spin, time-independent and time-dependent perturbation theory, the variational method, multielectron atoms, transitions and scattering. Throughout, the physical interpretation or application of certain results is highlighted, thereby providing useful insights into a wide range of systems and phenomena. This approach will make the book invaluable to anyone taking an undergraduate course in quantum mechanics.
