PHYSICS 2104A
0.50 credit · Main
An introduction to the fundamentals of quantum mechanics starting with a discussion of the physics of intrinsic spin. Quantum mechanics is presented through concrete examples such as Stern-Gerlach experiments, the connection between operators and measurement using matrix mechanics, time evolution, entanglement, wave mechanics in one-dimension, and angular momentum.
