The author has published two texts on classical physics,
Introduction to Classical Mechanics and Introduction to Electricity
and Magnetism, both meant for initial one-quarter physics courses.
The latter is based on a course taught at Stanford several years
ago with over 400 students enrolled. These lectures, aimed at the
very best students, assume a good concurrent course in calculus;
they are otherwise self-contained. Both texts contain an extensive
set of accessible problems that enhances and extends the coverage.
As an aid to teaching and learning, the solutions to these problems
have now been published in additional texts.The present text
completes the first-year introduction to physics with a set of
lectures on Introduction to Quantum Mechanics, the very successful
theory of the microscopic world. The Schroedinger equation is
motivated and presented. Several applications are explored,
including scattering and transition rates. The applications are
extended to include quantum electrodynamics and quantum statistics.
There is a discussion of quantum measurements. The lectures then
arrive at a formal presentation of quantum theory together with a
summary of its postulates. A concluding chapter provides a brief
introduction to relativistic quantum mechanics. An extensive set of
accessible problems again enhances and extends the coverage.The
goal of these three texts is to provide students and teachers alike
with a good, understandable, introduction to the fundamentals of
classical and quantum physics.
