| Beschreibung: | Introduction -- Light Waves -- Probability Waves of Matter -- Solution of the Schrödinger Equation in One Dimension -- One-Dimensional Quantum Mechanics: Scattering by a Potential -- One-Dimensional Quantum Mechanics: Motion within a Potential, Stationary Bound States -- Quantile Motion in One Dimension -- Coupled Harmonic Oscillators: Distinguishable Particles -- Coupled Harmonic Oscillators: Indistinguishable Particles -- Wave Packet in Three Dimensions -- Solution of the Schrödinger Equation in Three Dimensions -- Three-Dimensional Quantum Mechanics: Scattering by a Potential -- Three-Dimensional Quantum Mechanics: Bound States -- Hybridization -- Three-Dimensional Quantum Mechanics: Resonance Scattering -- Coulomb Scattering -- Spin -- Examples from Experiment -- Simple Aspects of the Structure of Quantum Mechanics -- Two-Level System -- Analyzing Amplitude -- Wigner Distribution -- Gamma Function -- Bessel Functions and Airy Functions -- Poisson Distribution -- Index The aim of this book is to explain the basic concepts and phenomena of quantum mechanics by means of visualization. Computer-generated illustrations in color are used extensively throughout the text, helping to establish the relation between quantum mechanics—wave functions, interference, atomic structure, and so forth—and classical physics—point mechanics, statistical mechanics, and wave optics. Even more important, by studying the pictures in parallel with the text, readers develop an intuition for such notoriously abstract phenomena as• the tunnel effect • excitation and decay of metastable states • wave-packet motion within a well • systems of distinguishable and indistinguishable particles • free wave packets and scattering in 3 dimensions • angular-momentum decomposition • stationary bound states in various 3-dimensional potentials • hybrid states • Kepler motion of wave packets in the Coulomb field • spin and magnetic resonance Illustrations from experiments in a variety of fields, including chemistry, and molecular, atomic, nuclear, and particle physics, underline the basic as well as the practical importance of quantum mechanics. In the present, fourth edition all computer graphics are presented in full color. It also contains additional physics topics such as hybridization.Praise for Previous Editions"The book is highly recommended as a complement to any standard textbook in quantum mechanics, but it will also be valuable to all of us who studied quantum mechanics without the pictures." — International Journal of Quantum Chemistry"This book would be an excellent basis for the study of special topics in a quantum physics course. Most serious students of physics and all of their teachers will want to consider having this orderly and graphic outline of introductory quantum theory at their fingertips." — American Journal of Physics"Their aim is the presentation of the 'principal ideas of wave mechanics' in such a way that students can build a quantum intuition out of their graphics." — Scientific American"This is a unique book. It does not provide a complete course in quantum theory, but as a companion work of reference it should be quite useful to students in providing insights into the dynamical structure of the theory." — Nature |

It also contains additional physics topics such as hybridization.Praise for Previous Editions"The book is highly recommended as a complement to any standard textbook in quantum mechanics, but it will also be valuable to all of us who studied quantum mechanics without the pictures." — International Journal of Quantum Chemistry"This book would be an excellent basis for the study of special topics in a quantum physics course. Most serious students of physics and all of their teachers will want to consider having this orderly and graphic outline of introductory quantum theory at their fingertips." — American Journal of Physics"Their aim is the presentation of the 'principal ideas of wave mechanics' in such a way that students can build a quantum intuition out of their graphics." — Scientific American"This is a unique book. It does not provide a complete course in quantum theory, but as a companion work of reference it should be quite useful to students in providing insights into the dynamical structure of the theory." — Nature Quantentheorie Physics Quantum theory Quantum Physics Numerical and Computational Physics Quantum Information Technology, Spintronics Grafische Darstellung (DE-588)4129552-3 gnd rswk-swf Computergrafik (DE-588)4010450-3 gnd rswk-swf Quantenmechanik (DE-588)4047989-4 gnd rswk-swf 1\p (DE-588)4123623-3 Lehrbuch gnd-content Quantenmechanik (DE-588)4047989-4 s Grafische Darstellung (DE-588)4129552-3 s 2\p DE-604 Computergrafik (DE-588)4010450-3 s 3\p DE-604 4\p DE-604 Brandt, Siegmund Sonstige oth Dahmen, Hans Dieter Sonstige oth https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4614-3951-6 Verlag Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
