Principles of Quantum Mechanics : As Applied to Chemistry and Chemical Physics

Editorial Reviews
Review
'What makes the text stand out from the crowd? First, the firmly positioned development of wave mechanics based on a thorough discussion of wave packets in the first chapter. Second, I would identify the rigour and completeness with which the generally standard and conventional problems are presented ... Instructors who favour rigour and completeness could well find this text attractive for their courses.' The Times Higher Education Supplement

Book Description
Quantum behavior encompasses a large fraction of modern science and technology, including the laws of chemistry and the properties of crystals, semiconductors, and superfluids. This graduate-level text presents the basic principles of quantum mechanics using modern mathematical techniques and theoretical concepts, such as hermitian operators, Hilbert space, Dirac notation, and ladder operators. The first two chapters serve as an introduction to quantum theory with a discussion of wave motion and Schrödinger's wave mechanics. Coverage then details the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics. Throughout, basic theory is clearly illustrated and applied to the harmonic oscillator, angular momentum, the hydrogen atom, the variation method, perturbation theory, and nuclear motion. This volume is the ideal textbook for beginning graduate students in chemistry, chemical physics, molecular physics and materials science.
