Quantum mechanics
Abstract
The universe we live in is both strange and interesting. This strangeness comes about because, at the most fundamental level, the universe is governed by the laws of quantum mechanics. This is the most spectacularly accurate and powerful theory ever devised, one that has given us insights into many aspects of the world, from the structure of matter to the meaning of information.

This textbook provides a comprehensive account of all things quantum. It starts by introducing the wavefunction and its interpretation as an ephemeral wave of complex probability, before delving into the mathematical formalism of quantum mechanics and exploring its diverse applications, from atomic physics and scattering, to quantum computing. Designed to be accessible, this volume is suitable for both students and researchers, beginning with the basics before progressing to more advanced topics. Quantum Mechanics is the third volume in a series of textbooks covering the core topics in theoretical physics. Covers all aspects of quantum mechanics, from the initial discussion of the wavefunction to advanced topics such as the path integral and quantum computation. Contains material ranging from topics taught to first-year undergraduates to those covered in third-year courses, and even content beyond the typical undergraduate curriculum. Includes a wealth of examples and illustrations… Numerous homework exercises for the book are available online (Fonte: Editore)
