  • 71128557
Subject(s): LOC classification:
  • QC 174.12 .T69 1992
Contents:
Preface -- 1. Stern-Gerlach Experiments -- 2. Rotation of Basis States and Matrix Mechanics -- 3. Angular Momentum -- 4. Time Evolution -- 5. A System of Two Spin-1/2 Particles -- 6. Wave Mechanics in One Dimension -- 7. The One-Dimensional Harmonic Oscillator -- 8. Path Integrals -- 9. Translational and Rotational Symmetry in the Two-Body Problem -- 10. Bound States of Central Potentials -- 11. Time-Independent Perturbations -- 12. Identical Particles -- 13. Scattering -- 14. Photons and Atoms -- Appendices -- Index.
Summary: This is the first textbook to introduce a modern approach to teaching quantum mechanics. The modern approach involves introducing the subject through examples such as detailed discussion of the physics of intrinsic spin. Unlike other books on the subject, it does not introduce the subject through wave mechanics.
