Written by Dr. Alexandre Zagoskin, who is a Reader at the University of Loughborough, Quantum Theory: A Complete Introduction is designed to give you everything you need to succeed, all in one place. It covers the key areas that students are expected to be confident in, outlining the basics in clear jargon-free English, and then providing added-value features like summaries of key ideas, and even lists of questions you might be asked in your exam. The book uses a structure that is designed to make quantum physics as accessible as possible - by starting with its similarities to Newtonian physics, rather than the rather startling differences. Topics covered include: configuration space, the harmonic oscillator, the Planck constant, Heisenberg uncertainty relations, Born-Sommerfeld quantisation rules, quantum state vector, quantum evolution, quantum lifht, observation, virtual reality, Schroedinger?s cat, and much more.
