Description

This internationally renowned course, "Introduction to Quantum Mechanics" by David J. Griffiths, is designed to provide undergraduate students with a comprehensive introduction to the fascinating and foundational realm of quantum physics. Taught at universities around the world, this course caters to Bachelor of Science (BS) students, equipping them with the fundamental principles, concepts, and mathematical tools required to explore the intriguing and often counterintuitive world of quantum mechanics.Throughout the course, students will delve into the principles of wave-particle duality, superposition, and quantum states, learning to navigate the behavior of particles at the atomic and subatomic levels. The course covers topics such as the Schrödinger equation, quantum operators, angular momentum, and the quantum mechanics of systems with spin. Moreover, students will gain insights into the quantum mechanics of systems including the hydrogen atom, and simple harmonic oscillators.David J. Griffiths, a renowned physicist and author of widely used textbooks in the field, brings his expertise to bear on this course. He guides students through both the conceptual foundations and practical applications of quantum mechanics, fostering a deep understanding of this crucial area of physics. By the end of this course, students will have a solid grounding in quantum mechanics, providing a springboard for further studies in physics or related fields, as well as a profound appreciation for the quantum mysteries that underpin our physical world.
