Problems in Quantum Mechanics: With Solutions 1st Edition by Gordon Leslie Squires | (PDF) Free Download

Description

Many students find quantum mechanics conceptually difficult when they first encounter the subject. In this book, the postulates and key applications of quantum mechanics are well illustrated by means of a carefully chosen set of problems, complete with detailed, step-by-step solutions. Beginning with a chapter on orders of magnitude, a variety of topics are then covered, including the mathematical foundations of quantum mechanics, Schrödinger’s equation, angular momentum, the hydrogen atom, the harmonic oscillator, spin, time-independent and time-dependent perturbation theory, the variational method, multielectron atoms, transitions and scattering. Throughout, the physical interpretation or application of certain results is highlighted, thereby providing useful insights into a wide range of systems and phenomena. This approach will make the book invaluable to anyone taking an undergraduate course in quantum mechanics.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐This small book is very suitable for those who want to brush up their quantum mechanics knowledge and practice as well as new learners. Its level of difficulty is about upper-undergraduate level.Each chapter is allotted a certain subject of quantum mechanics, the theory is laid out very succinctly and briefly. Almost no derivation is given. So, one must consult quantum mechanics reference books for detailed derivations. There is one set of fully-solved, instructive problems in each chapter. The problems are designed in such a way that the student can learn and practice a different aspect of the chapter in each question.If one wants to understand quantum mechanics going beyond the nasty, abstract and lengthy mathematical hodgepodge, this books is for you!

⭐If you have already taken undergraduate QM course and want to review what you have learned, it is a best book with readable size for couple of days. The book summarizes the basic formulae with a brief comments at each chapter. After keeping in mind the key idea you see the problems which are application of the formulae. The problem sets are so well organized as to help you get a consistent concept of what QM really is. Master it.

⭐I bought this book because I really needed practice solving problems in QM. It lacks the mathematical background (ie, linear operators, commutators, commutating operators, and other necessary mathematics). Oh, there’s a couple of problems, but as far as I am concerned, I threw the money away. It has not helped me. I am a grad student, and I never studied operators, or commutators, and of course, no one else ever uses them except in QM. I still don’t know how to use operators !! My bad, like the title says, don’t waste your money. The 1 star in the rating is only because they wouldn’t let me submit this review without a 1 to 5 rating, as far as I am concerned it rates Zero stars

⭐This is a fantastic book … explains standard undergrad quantum problems clearly … the best explainations I’ve ever encountered! Learning the fundamentals of q.m. is easy with the help of this book.

⭐When I first learnt quantum mechanics at University a whole heap of new concepts were thrown at me straight away. In order to make these ideas concrete I decided to turn to this fantastic book by Squires. In it are a large number of well organised, relevant questions starting from the very basics of the topic and progressing as far as most undergraduate courses tend to go. Coupled with them are a set of clear and elegant solutions that not only demonstrate the best way to solve the problems but also highlight other possible methods and key theoretical ideas.As a result, simply by spending a few hours a day on this book, for a few weeks, my understanding of this subject has sky-rocketed. Instead of having to work, I now spend my days gloating at other people on my course as they struggle haplessly with their assignments.One small caveat however, is that even if you can solve every problem in this book, you still may not have enough knowledge to get top marks in your final paper. No one book can provide all the answers to any question you might possibly get and this is no exception. Nevertheless, this is still an excellent resource that you should not miss out on.

⭐Good book in perfect condition

⭐章ごとに基礎事項のまとめ，問題，答えの順に書かれています．初学者にとっては少し難しい問題集かもしれませんが，とても基礎的な事象を扱っており，量子論の理解に大いに役立つでしょう．解答は教育的な立場からなされており，数学的・理論的な背景を十分に学んでない人でも理解できるようになってます．量子力学を学び始める人たちに紹介したい一冊．
