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.

Main themes

- Wave mechanics : principals, Schrödinger equation, example
- Quantum mechanics : principals; quantum dynamics, symmetry
- Disturbance theory

Other information (prerequisite, evaluation (assessment methods), course materials recommended readings, ...)

Prerequisites: General physics II, 2nd part: Quantum - Mathematical methods of physics II
