Siddiqui, Shabnam, 1975-
Quantum mechanics : a simplified approach / Shabnam Siddiqui. - 1 online resource : illustrations (some color)
An introductory history of quantum mechanics I -- An introductory history of quantum mechanics II -- Formalism -- Applications of the formalism I -- Application of the formalism II -- Perturbation theory -- Time-dependent perturbation theory -- Quantum computer.
Readers are introduced to the early ideas and experiments that lead to the theory of quantum mechanics in the first two chapters. Every chapter presents quantum ideas in a structured way, with a comparison between quantum and classical concepts. Simulations are provided to aid in the visualization of the quantum phenomenon, and for a meaningful understanding of mathematics. This approach may lead to development of "quantum mechanical intuition", as well as learning mathematical techniques for problem solving. Most importantly, the book is not flooded with numerous topics that makes the reader confused and distracted, rather most important topics are discussed at a more deeper level.
