Quantum Mechanics

Quantum Mechanics: Concepts and Applications provides aclear, balanced and modern introduction to the subject. Writtenwith the student's background and ability in mind the booktakes an innovative approach to quantum mechanics by combining theessential elements of the theory with the practical applications:it is therefore both a textbook and a problem solving book in oneself-contained volume. Carefully structured, the book starts withthe experimental basis of quantum mechanics and then discusses itsmathematical tools. Subsequent chapters cover the formalfoundations of the subject, the exact solutions of theSchrödinger equation for one and three dimensional potentials,time-independent and time-dependent approximation methods, andfinally, the theory of scattering.The text is richly illustrated throughout with many workedexamples and numerous problems with step-by-step solutions designedto help the reader master the machinery of quantum mechanics. Thenew edition has been completely updated and a solutionsmanual is available on request.Suitable for senior undergradutate courses and graduatecourses.
