This textbook introduces the reader to quantum theory and quantum
chemistry. The textbook is meant for 2nd - 3rd year bachelor
students of chemistry or physics, but also for students of related
disciplines like materials science, pharmacy, and bioinformatics.
At first, quantum theory is introduced, starting with experimental
results that made it inevitable to go beyond classical physics.
Subsequently, the Schroedinger equation is discussed in some
detail. Some few examples for which the Schroedinger equation can
be solved exactly are treated with special emphasis on relating the
results to real systems and interpreting the mathematical results
in terms of experimental observations. Ultimately, approximate
methods are presented that are used when applying quantum theory in
the field of quantum chemistry for the study of real systems like
atoms, molecules, and crystals. Both the foundations for the
different methods and a broader range of examples of their
applications are presented. The textbook assumes no prior knowledge
in quantum theory. Moreover, special emphasis is put on
interpreting the mathematical results and less on an exact
mathematical derivations of those. Finally, each chapter closes
with a number of questions and exercises that help in focusing on
the main results of the chapter. Many of the exercises include
answers.
