Time dependent perturbation theory -- 15. Periodic systems -- 16. Modern applications of quantum mechanics-- Appendices-- Index N2 - This innovative new text presents quantum mechanics in a manner that directly reflects the methods used in modern physics research making the material more approachable and preparing students more thoroughly for real research. Most texts in this area start with a bit of history and then move directly to wave-particle problems with accompanying heavy mathematical analysis ER -
