Download or read book Quantum Mechanics written by Shabnam Siddiqui and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-10 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum mechanics is one of the most challenging subjects to learn. It is challenging because quantum phenomenon is counterintuitive, and the mathematics used to explain such a phenomenon is very abstract, and difficult to grasp. This textbook is an attempt to overcome these challenges. Every chapter presents quantum ideas step- by- step in a structured way with a comparison between quantum and classical concepts. It provides a clear distinction between classical and quantum logic. Conceptual questions are provided after every important section so that the reader can test their understanding at every step. Such an approach aids in preventing misconceptions. Problem solving is not restricted to solving differential equations and integration. But it requires to systematically and creatively analyze a problem, to apply the new and powerful concepts for finding a solution and to understand the physical meaning of the solution. The tutorials on special topics are an effort to teach problem solving by actively engaging the reader in a thinking process, to apply the concepts and to understand the physical meaning of the solution. The simulations are provided for some of the topics. The simulations aid in the visualization of the quantum phenomenon, and for meaningful understanding of the mathematics. This approach may lead to development of "quantum mechanical intuition "as well as learning mathematical techniques for problem solving. Most importantly, the book is not flooded with numerous topics that makes the reader confused and distracted, rather the most important topics are discussed at a deeper level. The understanding of quantum mechanics is incomplete without understanding the early ideas and experiments that lead to the development of the quantum theory. Thus, the first two chapters of the book are dedicated to such topics. The key features of this book are: A simplified, structured, and step-by-step introduction to quantum mechanics. The simplification is attained through use of two-level system, step- by- step discussion of important topics in a simplified language at a deeper level, analogies, and visualization using illustrations and simulations A systematic arrangement of topics, and numerous worked- out examples. The presentation of the structure in the mathematical formalism of quantum mechanics provides clarity in understanding complicated and abstract mathematics. It also helps to understand the distinction between the quantum mechanical and classical approaches Conceptual questions at the end of every important section. The conceptual questions can be used in a classroom as a point of discussion between an instructor and students Tutorials on special topics. Simulations on special topics aid in the visualization of the physical phenomenon, and demonstration of the application of mathematics An in-depth discussion of the wave-particle duality, measurement problem, and their philosophical implications in Chapter 2 provides an understanding of the broader meaning of quantum mechanics

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is it possible for two objects to be in two places at once? Can cause and effect happen in reverse? Is time travel possible? Believe it or not, it is possible: welcome to the Quantum World! Unlike other arguments, however, the real difficulty is not in understanding, but in accepting something completely senseless, precisely in the right meaning of the term: not sensible, that is, contrary to the perception of our senses. You will notice that quantum mechanics is much "easier" than the theory of relativity. In fact, you could get a child to help you digest certain concepts. The great difficulty does not lie in their complexity, but their absurdity in terms of logic acquired after many years of existence in a world that constantly follows certain rules. The more the brain is free of preconceptions and ingrained notions, the better it is. You will learn: What is interference; The Double-Slit Experiment; Quantum wave function; Feynman's works; The relation between waves and particles; The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle; How particles can be in multiple places at once; Quantum entanglement; The Schrödinger's cat thought experiment; The Copenhagen interpretation and need for an observer; ...and much more! Quantum Physics is at the basis of all the technological innovations of today, from atomic energy to computer microelectronics, from digital clocks to lasers, semiconductor systems, photoelectric cells, diagnostic and treatment equipment for many diseases. In short, today we can live in a "modern" way thanks to Quantum Physics and its applications. This comprehensive beginner's guide to quantum mechanics explains the most important and stunning quantum experiments that show quantum physics is real. Are you ready? Let's dive deep into the fascinating science of Quantum Physics. Happy reading!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ★★ It might not be rocket science, but quantum physics is one field of science that has challenged scientists for decades. ★★ Infamously, it is one of the most difficult branches of science to understand. One reason for this is that you must be ready to envision the unthinkable. Quantum physics defies common sense and intuition, and has often been described as "weird", or "strange", even by famous scientists like Einstein. To spare you the trauma, this book will not delve into mind-boggling math or equations. This book serves as a smooth introduction into quantum physics - probably the easiest you will come across. For years, the crazy math has made many people assume quantum physics to be the preserve of a select few. That shouldn't be the case. Quantum physics is an exciting journey if you are a thrill seeker. Comprehensible? Yes, it is. You don't have to go about it the difficult way either. In this book, we will cover the basic concepts and theories that are the foundation upon which quantum physics thrives today. With this knowledge, you can then graduate deeper into the intrigues of quantum physics. The beauty of learning quantum physics is that you probably have as much certainty of the concepts as the top scientists in the world today. After all, simple things like the workings of measurements are still a conundrum to quantum physicists.

Download or read book An Introduction to Quantum Mechanics written by Tilak Sinha and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-08-19 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The core content of even the most intricate intellectual edifices is often a simple fact or idea. So is it with quantum mechanics; the entire mathematical fabric of the formal description of quantum mechanics stems essentially from the fact that quantum probabilities interfere (i.e., from the superposition principle). This book is dedicated to substantiating this claim. In the process, the book tries to demonstrate how the factual content of quantum mechanics can be transcribed in the formal language of vector spaces and linear transformations by disentangling the empirical content from the usual formal description. More importantly, it tries to bring out what this transcription achieves. The book uses a pedagogic strategy which reverse engineers the postulates of quantum mechanics to device a schematic outline of the empirical content of quantum mechanics from which the postulates are then reconstructed step by step. This strategy is adopted to avoid the disconcerting details of actual experiments (however simplified) to spare the beginner of issues that lurk in the fragile foundations of the subject. In the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics, the key idea is measurement. But "measurement" carries an entirely different meaning from the connotation that the term carries elsewhere in physics. This book strives to underline this as strongly as possible. The book is intended as an undergraduate text for a first course in quantum mechanics. Since the book is self contained, it may also be used by enthusiastic outsiders interested to get a glimpse of the core content of the subject. Features: Demonstrates why linear algebra is the appropriate mathematical language for quantum mechanics. Uses a reconstructive approach to motivate the postulates of quantum mechanics. Builds the vocabulary of quantum mechanics by showing how the entire body of its conceptual ingredients can be constructed from the single notion of quantum measurement.

Book excerpt: ★★You Don't Need To Be Einstein To Understand Quantum Physics★★ Understanding the universe and how the space-time continuum affects us must be one of the greatest explorations of mankind... And yet we only understand a fraction of it. There are several different concepts that we learn at school regarding the universe and what it means to us. According to most physics textbooks, we need to understand that most of the different types of occurrences and reactions can be described both scientifically and mathematically. Life and the universe are complex and are filled with unknown variables. These variables bring about a lot of change that is difficult to predict. Quantum physics is one of the most confusing yet compelling scientific fields known to man. Nothing in science would function without its quantum branch. The problem is that knowing about quantum physics is one thing, but truly understanding it takes a lot of patience and the understanding of complex mathematical constructs that only college professors would be able to comprehend. Most of us don't have that sort of time to dedicate our lives to understanding the quantum side of the universe. This book is here to teach you the basics of quantum physics: String theory, relativity, entanglement, chaos, and the butterfly effect. And, if you're worried about not knowing if you're going to understand the mathematics in this book, then fear not... There isn't any! This book is written in simple terms and includes some real-life examples that will help you wrap your mind around this difficult concept. I hope that this is going to be the book that will open your eyes and your mind to a whole new set of ideas and a new way of thinking. Understanding how quantum physics influences your life on a daily basis will change your outlook on many things. In these pages, I hope to help turn the light on for your mind to understand a whole new fascinating side to the universe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long-listed for the 2016 PEN/E. O. Wilson Literary Science Writing Award "An important book that provides insight into key new developments in our understanding of the nature of space, time and the universe. It will repay careful study." --John Gribbin, The Wall Street Journal "An endlessly surprising foray into the current mother of physics' many knotty mysteries, the solving of which may unveil the weirdness of quantum particles, black holes, and the essential unity of nature." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review) What is space? It isn't a question that most of us normally ask. Space is the venue of physics; it's where things exist, where they move and take shape. Yet over the past few decades, physicists have discovered a phenomenon that operates outside the confines of space and time: nonlocality-the ability of two particles to act in harmony no matter how far apart they may be. It appears to be almost magical. Einstein grappled with this oddity and couldn't come to terms with it, describing it as "spooky action at a distance." More recently, the mystery has deepened as other forms of nonlocality have been uncovered. This strange occurrence, which has direct connections to black holes, particle collisions, and even the workings of gravity, holds the potential to undermine our most basic understandings of physical reality. If space isn't what we thought it was, then what is it? In Spooky Action at a Distance, George Musser sets out to answer that question, offering a provocative exploration of nonlocality and a celebration of the scientists who are trying to explain it. Musser guides us on an epic journey into the lives of experimental physicists observing particles acting in tandem, astronomers finding galaxies that look statistically identical, and cosmologists hoping to unravel the paradoxes surrounding the big bang. He traces the often contentious debates over nonlocality through major discoveries and disruptions of the twentieth century and shows how scientists faced with the same undisputed experimental evidence develop wildly different explanations for that evidence. Their conclusions challenge our understanding of not only space and time but also the origins of the universe-and they suggest a new grand unified theory of physics. Delightfully readable, Spooky Action at a Distance is a mind-bending voyage to the frontiers of modern physics that will change the way we think about reality.
