A Quantum Mechanics Primer with Solved Exercises

English

By (author): Benjamin Fuks Daniel Baye Darcy Bien Marianne Dufour

Translated by: Alan S. Cornell

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to quantum mechanics, supported by numerous solved exercises. Aiming to be both exhaustive and educational, it minimises overly formal aspects by presenting the wave mechanical approach to quantum mechanics. The book simplifies and rigorously covers a large set of fundamental topics such as potential wells and barriers, wave packets, harmonic oscillators, and the hydrogen atom. It also addresses spin and, in simple terms, the conceptual difficulties of quantum physics and Bells inequalities. The discussion extends to relativistic quantum mechanics. Each chapter includes exercises designed to test comprehension and facilitate optimal assimilation of the material, and are followed by detailed solutions. Intended for both personal study and course support, this book is valuable for anyone curious about the subject. However, it is specifically targeted at undergraduate and masters students in physics, chemistry, and mathematics, as well as engineering students.

About Benjamin FuksDaniel BayeDarcy BienMarianne Dufour

Daniel Baye was Full Professor at the Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB) until he retired in 2010. He taught various courses in quantum physics and nuclear physics for the second to the fifth year of engineering studies at the Ecole Polytechnique of ULB. He wrote several lecture notes some of which inspired the proposed book. He also prepared and tested with his students a large number of exercises in those fields. Earlier in his career he was also involved in teaching linear algebra and numerical computation. He wrote 230 articles in peer-reviewed international journals. He has been very active in several international collaborations mostly with Japan. He supervised 17 doctoral theses and continues helping Ph.D. students. His main domain of interest is nuclear physics and the theory of reactions. He developed several microscopic models of nuclei that is involving all nucleons. Marianne Dufour is Assistant Professor at the University of Strasbourg France. She obtained her doctorate in theoretical physics in 1986 and completed her habilitation in theoretical nuclear physics in 2003. Her research mainly focuses on the quantum many-body problem in nuclear physics or atomic physics. She also worked on realistic interactions useful in shell model calculations. Currently she is studying the 15C-15F mirror system to find negative parity resonances in 15F and to compare predictions with recent experiments. She has given many physics lessons having taught more than 6600 hours at all levels of the universitys educational system. Of note she also had several important responsibilities at the University of Strasbourg for example she currently handles physics in the so-called MPA training of excellence which covers the first 2 years of physics and mathematics modules at the university. Benjamin Fuks is Professor at Sorbonne Université Paris France. He also is Vice-Dean of the Department of Bachelor Studies in Physics since 2021 (750 students). Earlier he taught the 2nd year of bachelor studies in physics at Sorbonne (350 students) from 2015 to 2021. He is Member of the Laboratory of Theoretical and High Energy Physics (LPTHE). His research activities address the phenomenology of theories beyond the standard model of particle physics (prospective studies at present and future colliders reinterpretation of current experimental results) precision calculations for new physics processes (next-to-leading-order corrections in the theory of the strong interactions resumption of the associated radiative corrections) and the development of simulation tools dedicated to collider physics (MonteCarlo event generators and satellite programs). Alan Cornell is a Professor at the University of Johannesburg South Africa. His primary research interests lie in the phenomenology of theories beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. This includes studies on extra-dimensional models and the behaviour of couplings at higher energy scales which are pivotal in understanding fundamental forces and particles at a deeper level. Alan Cornell has also made advancements in the study of quasinormal modes in various black hole backgrounds where his work in this area involves developing novel numerical approaches to investigate these perturbations with an aim at enhancing our comprehension of black hole dynamics and gravitational waves. In addition to these researches he is deeply committed to physics education and has conducted research into undergraduate pedagogy and postgraduate supervision practices aiming to improve their quality and effectiveness.
