PHYS 340 - Quantum Mechanics


Credits: 3
Planned Offering: Fall

Prerequisite: PHYS 210 and PHYS 225 (or ENGN 225), and MATH 332 as prerequisite or corequisite. A study of the postulates and formalism of quantum theory emphasizing the Schroedinger approach. The probabilistic theory is applied to one-dimensional bound and scattering states and the three-dimensional central force problem. Investigation of spin and angular momentum, Clebsch-Gordan coefficients, indistinguishable particles, and perturbation theory. Mathematical formalism includes operators, commutators, Hilbert space, and Dirac notation. Sukow.
