Introduction to Quantum Theory > 물리학

Part I. Introductory:

1. The need for a non-classical description of microscopic phenomena;
2. Classical concepts and quantal inequivalencies;
3. Introducing quantum mechanics: a comparison of the classical stretched string and the quantal box;
4. Mathematical background;

Part II. The Central Concepts:
5. The postulates of quantum mechanics;
6. Applications of the postulates: bound states in one dimension;
7. Applications of the postulates: continuum states in one dimension;
8. Quantal/classical connections;
9. Commuting operators, quantum numbers, symmetry properties;

Part III. Systems with Few Degrees of Freedom:
10. Orbital angular momentum;
11. Two-particle systems, potential-well bound state problems;
12. Electromagnetic fields;
13. Intrinsic spin, two-state systems;
14. Generalized angular momentum and the coupling of angular momenta;
15. Three-dimensional continuum states/scattering;

Part IV. Complex Systems:
16. Time-dependent approximation methods;
17. Time-independent approximation methods;
18. Many degrees of freedom: atoms and molecules; Appendix A. Elements of probability theory; Appendix B. Fourier series and integrals; Appendix C. Solution of Legendre\'s equation; Appendix D. Fundamental and derived quantities, conversion factors; References.
