Physics names Quantum mechanics is one of the most challenging subjects to learn. It is challenging because a quantum phenomenon is counterintuitive and the mathe matics used to explain it is often abstract and difficult to grasp. This textbook is an attempt to overcome these challenges. Every chapter presents quantum ideas in a step- by- step structured way along with comparisons between quantum and classical concepts that provide clear distinction between classical and quantum logic. Conceptual questions are given after every important section so that readers can check their understanding at every step. Tutorials are included on special topics to teach problem solving by actively engaging readers in a thinking process about the topic. Simulations are provided to aid in the visualization of the quantum phenomenon and to gain meaningful understanding of the mathematics involved. This approach may lead to the development of quantum mechanical intuition as well as a learning of mathematical techniques for problem solving. Most importantly, the book does not contain an overabundance of topics that can make readers confused and distracted, but rather the most important topics are discussed and at a deep level. The story of the development of quantum theory is one of the most inspiring stories in physics. Readers are introduced to the early ideas and experiments that lead to the theory of quantum mechanics in the first two chapters. The key features of this book are: A simplified, structured, and step- by- step introduction to quantum mechanics A systematic arrangement of
topics and chapters Conceptual questions to test logical understanding Tutorials on special topics to actively engage students in a thinking process concerning the differences between quantum mechanics and classical physics Simulations to aid in the visualization of the physical phenomenon with demonstrations of the application of mathematics CRC Press * f’i 1,1 Հ ® ISBN-13: 47fi-l-13fl-1472b-fl 978113819726890000 Taylor Francis Group an informa business www.crcpress.com CRC Press titles are available as eBook editions in a range of digital formats c 106514800664662
