Greensite physics and astronomy department san francisco state university In the subsequent century, there have been many excellent textbooks written on the topic, and one might well wonder why someone might decide to create another. Quantum mechanics describes the dynamics of all systems, great and small

Rather than making firm predictions, it enables us to calculate probabilities
If the system is massive, the probabilities of interest may be so near zero or unity that we have effective certainty.
Through this rich collection of examples, problems, and exercises, i want to empower the student to become an independent learner and an adept practitioner of quantum mechanics Being able to solve problems is an unfailing evidence of a real understanding of the subject. This book is brought to you for free and open access by the department of physics and astronomy at academic commons It has been accepted for inclusion in essential graduate physics by an authorized administrator of academic commons

Niels bohr said, “if you are not confused by quantum physics then you haven’t really understood it” Richard feynman remarked, “i think i can safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics.” the purpose of this book is to teach you how to do quantum mechanics.
