Part of the new Ladybird Expert series Quantum Mechanics is a clear simple & entertaining introduction to the weird mind-bending world of the very very small Written by physicist & broadcaster Professor Jim Al-Khalili it explores all the key players breakthroughs controversies & unanswered questions of the quantum world You'll discover how the sun shines why light is both a wave & a particle the certainty of the Uncertainty Principle Schrodinger's Cat Einstein's spooky action how to build a quantum computer & why quantum mechanics drives even its experts completely crazy' Jim Al-Khalili has done an admirable job of condensing the ideas of quantum physics from Max Planck to the possibilities of quantum computers into brisk straightforward English' The Times Written by the leading lights & most outstanding communicators in their fields the Ladybird Expert books provide clear accessible & authoritative introductions to subjects drawn from science history & culture For an adult readership the Ladybird Expert series is produced in the same iconic small hardback format pioneered by the original Ladybirds Each beautifully illustrated book features the first new illustrations produced in the original Ladybird style for nearly forty years ...

This account of the foundations of quantum mechanics is an introduction accessible to anyone with high school mathematics & provides a rigorous discussion of important recent advances in the understanding of quantum physics including theories put forward by the author himself ...

If you need a book that relates the core principles of quantum mechanics to modern applications in engineering physics & nanotechnology this is it Students will appreciate the book's applied emphasis which illustrates theoretical concepts with examples of nanostructured materials optics & semiconductor devices The many worked examples & more than 160 homework problems help students to problem solve & to practise applications of theory Without assuming a prior knowledge of high-level physics or classical mechanics the text introduces Schroedinger's equation operators & approximation methods Systems including the hydrogen atom & crystalline materials are analyzed in detail More advanced subjects such as density matrices quantum optics & quantum information are also covered Practical applications & algorithms for the computational analysis of simple structures make this an ideal introduction to quantum mechanics for students of engineering physics nanotechnology & other disciplines Additional resources available from wwwcambridgeorg 9780521897839 ...

This book gives an introduction to quantum mechanics with the matrix method Heisenberg's matrix mechanics is described in detail The fundamental equations are derived by algebraic methods using matrix calculus Only a brief description of Schroedinger's wave mechanics is given (in most books exclusively treated) to show their equivalence to Heisenberg's matrix method In the first part the historical development of Quantum theory by Planck Bohr & Sommerfeld is sketched followed by the ideas & methods of Heisenberg Born & Jordan Then Pauli's spin & exclusion principles are treated Pauli's exclusion principle leads to the structure of atoms Finally Dirac's relativistic quantum mechanics is shortly presented Matrices & matrix equations are today easy to handle when implementing numerical algorithms using standard software as MAPLE & Mathematica ...

On a nowhere asteroid on the far rim of the galaxy two young alien girls-Rox & Zam-spend their days tearing apart & repairing clunkers in a spaceship junkyard These aspiring gearheads yearn for the chance to test their skills on something besides rusted old rockets & broken-down planet-hoppers Their big chance finally comes when the captain of a mysterious ship called the Quasar Torrent enlists the kids for some repair work But what initially looks like a golden opportunity quickly becomes a nightmare when the young friends find they&ve been kidnapped by what turns out to be a band of space pirates! Rox & Zam find themselves swept up in the astro-bucaneers& vendetta against a huge intergalactic corporation that&s forced this motley band of working stiffs from across space into a life of crime Now the girls must chose do they want the comforts of home & family or the glamorous adventure of a lifetime-to be part of a crew of colorful misfits intent on plunder revenge & excitement? Their lives friendship & maybe even the fate of a galaxy hangs in the balance! ...
