Video Lectures. The videos in this course are broadly divided into three parts: Part 1: Basic Concepts. In Part 1, we introduce the basic concepts: Interpretation of the wavefunction, relation to probability, Schrödinger equation, Hermitian operators and inner products. We also discuss wave-packets, time evolution, Ehrenfest theorem and ...

Quantum mechanics is the best tool we have to understand how the universe works on its smallest scales
Nov 19, 2023 · Quantum mechanics is an essential branch of physics that explains the properties and behaviors of particles at the atomic and subatomic scale. It challenges the principles of classical mechanics with concepts like quantization, where properties like energy exist in discrete units, and wave-particle duality, where particles exhibit both particle and wave characteristics. This theory has ...
Feb 20, 2022 · 29.0: Prelude to Quantum Physics 29.1: Quantization of Energy Energy is quantized in some systems, meaning that the system can have only certain energies and not a continuum of energies, unlike the classical case. This would be like having only certain speeds at which a car can travel because its kinetic energy can have only certain values. We also find that some forms of energy transfer take ...
