By: Material type: TextTextPublication details: Cambridge : Cambridge University Press, 2017.Edition: 2nd edDescription: xi, 468 pages : illustrations, 26 cmISBN:
  • 9781107179868
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 530.12 23 G855
Contents:
1. The wave function -- 2. Time-Independent Schrèodinger equation -- 3. Formalism -- 4. Quantum mechanics in three dimensions -- 5. Identical particles -- 6. Time-Independent perturbation theory -- 7. The variational principle -- 8. The WKB approximation -- 9. Time-Dependent perturbation theory -- 10. The adiabatic approximation -- 11. Scattering -- 12. Afterword -- Appendix.
Summary: "This text first teaches students how to do quantum mechanics, and then provides them with more insightful discussion of what it means. Fundamental principles are covered, quantum theory presented, and special techniques developed for attacking realistic problems. Two-part coverage organizes topics under basic theory, and assembles an arsenal of approximation schemes with illustrative applications." --
