Coles An Introduction to Quantum Physics: From Schrodinger's Equation to Quantum Computing at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
An Introduction to Quantum Physics: From Schrodinger&s Equation to Quantum Computing develops physical insight and introduces a few mathematical techniques to make quantum physics accessible and engaging. The book introduces the Schrodinger wave equation, solving classic problems such as the infinite square well and the quantum harmonic oscillator, before solving for the electronic structure of the hydrogen atom. It also provides intuition into the famous Heisenberg uncertainty principle, and uses the Pauli exclusion principle to explain the origin of the periodic table. Unusual for an introductory quantum physics text, the book then introduces matrix mechanics for spin, which leads to more recent work on entanglement, Bell&s theorem, and elements of quantum computing. The book explores rigorously philosophical issues that are now experimentally testable, which students find compelling and have become of practical importance. The text makes a point to connect physics, chemistry, mathematics, and computer science. Through clear and entertaining text, ample figures, worked examples, and thoughtful homework problems, the book builds physical intuition and skill at problem solving.
Balances building physical intuition with mathematical derivations in an informal and entertaining way
Introduces the Schrodinger wave equation to solve important model problems through to the electronic structure of the hydrogen atom
Explores rigorously philosophical issues around entanglement, introducing the basis for quantum computing
Helps students make connections between physics, chemistry, mathematics, and
computer science
Offers online support, including a solution manual for instructors
