61. Quantum Physics

    By Mircea S. Rogalski, Stuart B. Palmer

    This book presents the basic concepts and methods of quantum mechanics for upper level undergraduate students, allowing them to master its application to real physical situations. A postulate-based treatment is adopted together with a gradual development of the quantum formalism of wave functions,...

62. Quantum Dynamics of Simple Systems

    Proceedings of the Forty Fourth Scottish Universities Summer School in Physics, Stirling, August 1994

    Edited by G.L Oppo, Stephen M. Barnett, E Riis, M Wilkinson

    Series: Scottish Graduate Series

    The present level of experimental sophistication in quantum physics allows physicists to explore domains unimaginable just a decade ago and to test the most fundamental laws of quantum mechanics. This has led to renewed interest in devising new tests, experiments, and devices where it is possible...

63. Symmetries in Quantum Mechanics

    From Angular Momentum to Supersymmetry (PBK)

    By M Chaichian, R Hagedorn

    Series: Graduate Student Series in Physics

    Symmetries in Quantum Mechanics: From Angular Momentum to Supersymmetry (PBK) provides a thorough, didactic exposition of the role of symmetry, particularly rotational symmetry, in quantum mechanics. The bulk of the book covers the description of rotations (geometrically and group-theoretically)...

64. Molecular Applications of Quantum Defect Theory

    By Jungen Ch

    As a consequence of new experimental techniques in optical and collision physics, such as multiphoton excitation and VUV radiation generation, quantum defect theory (QDT) has become more widely used as a theoretical tool for experimentalists.Drawing together a historical body of work that contains...

66. Quantum Mechanics, Second edition

    2nd Edition

    By Paul C.W. Davies, David S. Betts

    Series: Physics and its Applications

    Quantum mechanics is the key to modern physics and chemistry, yet it is notoriously difficult to understand. This book is designed to overcome that obstacle. Clear and concise, it provides an easily readable introduction intended for science undergraduates with no previous knowledge of quantum...

67. Quasi-Exactly Solvable Models in Quantum Mechanics

    By A.G Ushveridze

    Exactly solvable models, that is, models with explicitly and completely diagonalizable Hamiltonians are too few in number and insufficiently diverse to meet the requirements of modern quantum physics. Quasi-exactly solvable (QES) models (whose Hamiltonians admit an explicit diagonalization only for...

68. The Mystery of the Quantum World

    2nd Edition

    By Euan J. Squires

    Quantum mechanics stands as one of the most remarkable achievements of the 20th century, providing startling insight into the nature of matter and a spectacularly successful predictive theory. However, while the predictive ability of the quantum theory has been rigorously tested time and again, so...

69. Continuous Quantum Measurements and Path Integrals

    By M.B Mensky

    Advances in technology are taking the accuracy of macroscopic as well as microscopic measurements close to the quantum limit, for example, in the attempts to detect gravitational waves. Interest in continuous quantum measurements has therefore grown considerably in recent years. Continuous Quantum...

70. The Quantum Dice

    By L.I Ponomarev, I.V Kurchatov

    "Real black magic calculus" is how Albert Einstein described quantum mechanics in a letter in 1925. Quantum mechanics is now rather more widely understood by physicists, but still many "outsiders" are unaware of what quantum mechanics is, how it has changed the course of development of physics and...
