Problems and Solutions in Quantum Mechanics [Paperback]

A collection of solved problems corresponding to topics in undergraduate and graduate Quantum Mechanics courses.This collection of solved problems corresponds to the standard topics covered in established undergraduate and graduate courses in Quantum Mechanics. Completely up-to-date, problems are also included on topics of current interest which are absent in the existing literature. Solutions are presented in considerable detail, to enable students to follow each step. The emphasis is on stressing the principles and methods used, allowing students to master new ways of thinking and problem-solving techniques. Properties and concepts of interest are also highlighted.This collection of solved problems corresponds to the standard topics covered in established undergraduate and graduate courses in Quantum Mechanics.
