{"product_id":"lectures-on-quantum-mechanics-5","title":"Lectures On Quantum Mechanics","description":"This set of lecture notes on quantum mechanics aims to teach, in a simple and straightforward manner, the basic theory behind the subject, drawing on examples from all fields of physics to provide both background as well as context.The self-contained book includes a review of classical mechanics and some of the necessary mathematics. Both the standard fare of quantum mechanics texts — the harmonic oscillator, the hydrogen atom, angular momentum as well as topics such as symmetry with a discussion on periodic potentials, the relativistic electron, spin and scattering theory are covered. Approximation methods are discussed with a view to applications; these include stationary perturbation theory, the WKB approximation, time dependent perturbations and the variational principle. Together, the seventeen chapters provide a very comprehensive introduction to quantum mechanics. Selected problems are  collected at the end of each chapter in addition to the numerous exercises sprinkled throughout the text.The book is written in a simple and elegant style, and is characterized by clarity, depth and excellent pedagogical organization.","brand":"World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54234251592024,"sku":"9789814374385","price":93.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9789814374385_af0168b3-2ce8-4215-b2cc-d02931d4677c.jpg?v=1777248024","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/lectures-on-quantum-mechanics-5","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
