Book Description:
|
Following in the footsteps of Dirac's classic work Principles of Quantum Mechanics, this text takes a conceptual approach to the subject and explains all themes from first principles. It covers representation theory and the equations of motion. The book also discusses motion in the presence of potential steps and wells, bound state problems, symmetries and their consequences, the role of angular momentum in quantum mechanics, approximation methods, time-dependent perturbation...
More Description
Following in the footsteps of Dirac's classic work Principles of Quantum Mechanics, this text takes a conceptual approach to the subject and explains all themes from first principles. It covers representation theory and the equations of motion. The book also discusses motion in the presence of potential steps and wells, bound state problems, symmetries and their consequences, the role of angular momentum in quantum mechanics, approximation methods, time-dependent perturbation methods, the three-body problem, and quantization. It includes several end-of-chapter appendices and numerous problems, along with a solutions manual for qualifying instructors.
