Course objectives
Basic course in nonrelativistic quantum mechanics. A short review of the origins of quantum theory. Solutions to Schrödinger's equation in one dimension. General fomalism of quantum mechanics: mathematical tools, postulates of quantum mechanics. Exactly soluble bound state problems: harmonic oscillator, angular momentum, spherically symetrical potencials, the hydrogen atom. Electron spin. Systems of identical particles. Time-independent aproximate methods: perturbation theory, variational methods. Time-dependent perturbation theory: transition rates and Fermi golden rule.
