Aims

This course for students who already received an introduction to quantum ideas and to 1D wave mechanics will include a systematic exposition to non-relativist quantum mechanics, - who establishes it on strong but not too formal theoretical bases and - that offer a tool useful for the study of fields like atomic and molecular physics, nuclear and solid state physics.
