Description
PEARSON INDIA Quantum Mechanics 2014 Edition by V Murugan
About the Book: Quantum Mechanics
Spread over 16 chapters, this book gives a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental postulates and the mathematical formalism of quantum mechanics. It spells the rules that facilitate translation of abstract mathematical information into physical terms to enable students understand the emergence of particle property in all quantum objects. With the right balance of theory and problems, this book gives an insight to the conceptual framework of quantum systems, which shaped our understanding of the physical universe and its evolution through the years. There are numerous worked-out examples and practice exercises to help students gain sufficient proficiency.
