The Picture Book of Quantum Mechanics, Fourth Edition by Siegmund BrandtEnglish | PDF | 2012 | 492 Pages | ISBN : 1461439507 | 18.3 MB
The aim of this book is to explain the basic concepts and phenomena of quantum mechanics by means of visualization. Computer-generated illustrations in color are used extensively throughout the text, helping to establish the relation between quantum mechanics—wave functions, interference, atomic structure, and so forth—and classical physics—point mechanics, statistical mechanics, and wave optics. Even more important, by studying the pictures in parallel with the text, readers develop an intuition for such notoriously abstract phenomena as
