Invitation To Quantum Mechanics

How do atoms and electrons behave? Are they just like marbles, basketballs, suns, and planets, but smaller? They are not. Atoms and electrons behave in a fashion quite unlike the familiar marbles, basketballs, suns, and planets. This sophomore-level textbook delves into the counterintuitive, intricate, but ultimately fascinating world of quantum mechanics. Building both physical insight and mathematical technique, it opens up a new world to the discerning reader.After discussing experimenta...
