Lectures on Quantum Mechanics: With Problems, Exercises and Solutions by Jean-Lo

Description: Lectures on Quantum Mechanics by Jean-Louis Basdevant The new edition of this remarkable textbook offers the reader a conceptually strong introduction to quantum mechanics, but goes beyond this to present a fascinating tour of modern theoretical physics. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description The new edition of this remarkable textbook offers the reader a conceptually strong introduction to quantum mechanics, but goes beyond this to present a fascinating tour of modern theoretical physics. Beautifully illustrated and engagingly written, it starts with a brief overview of diverse topics across physics including nanotechnology, materials science, and cosmology. It provides new chapters on astrophysics, quantum information and the photon. Each chapter provides a set of exercises, questions, a problem and solutions. The core of the book covers both established and emerging aspects of quantum mechanics. A concise introduction to traditional quantum mechanics covers the Schrödinger equation, Hilbert space, photon physics, the algebra of observables, hydrogen atom, spin and Pauli principle. Modern features of the field are presented with Bells inequality by exploring systems of entangled states, that have generated the second quantum revolution of systems that communicate instantly at a distance, and the birth of quantum information: cryptography, teleportation and quantum computers.

Long Description Beautifully illustrated and engagingly written, Twelve Lectures in Quantum Mechanics presents theoretical physics with a breathtaking array of examples and anecdotes. Basdevants style is clear and stimulating, in the manner of a brisk classroom lecture that students can follow with ease and enjoyment. Here is a sample of the books style, from the opening of Chapter 1: "If one were to ask a passer-by to quote a great formula of physics, chances are that the answer would be E = mc2. In fact, of the three watershed years for physics toward the beginning of the 20th century - 1905: the Special Relativity of Einstein, Lorentz and Poincar Feature Written in an engaging style, places Quantum Mechanics in a broader physics context Extensively revised and enhanced edition Each chapter provides a set of exercises, questions, a problem and solutions Details ISBN3031176340 Author Jean-Louis Basdevant Short Title Lectures on Quantum Mechanics Publisher Springer International Publishing AG Series Graduate Texts in Physics Language English Edition 3rd ISBN-10 3031176340 ISBN-13 9783031176340 Format Hardcover Subtitle With Problems, Exercises and Solutions Imprint Springer International Publishing AG Place of Publication Cham Country of Publication Switzerland Replaces 9783319434780 Year 2023 Pages 482 Publication Date 2023-02-04 UK Release Date 2023-02-04 Edition Description 3rd ed. 2023 DEWEY 530.12 Audience Undergraduate Illustrations 24 Illustrations, color; 91 Illustrations, black and white; XVII, 482 p. 115 illus., 24 illus. in color.
