Description for The Conceptual Foundations of Quantum Mechanics (AMS Chelsea Publishing)
Hardcover. Quantum mechanics is arguably the most successful physical theory. It provides the structure underlying all of our electronic technology, and much of our mastery over materials. Suitable for undergraduates with minimal mathematical preparation, this title presents a logical path to understanding what quantum mechanics is about. Series: AMS Chelsea Publishing. Num Pages: 148 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PBW; PHQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 261 x 185 x 15. Weight in Grams: 434.
This book provides a clear and logical path to understanding what quantum mechanics is about. It will be accessible to undergraduates with minimal mathematical preparation: all that is required is an open mind, a little algebra, and a first course in undergraduate physics. Quantum mechanics is arguably the most successful physical theory. It makes predictions of incredible accuracy. It provides the structure underlying all of our electronic technology, and much of our mastery over materials. But compared with Newtonian mechanics, or even relativity, its teachings seem obscure--they have no counterpart in everyday experience, and they sometimes contradict our simplest notions ...
