TY - DATA AU - Shankar, R. TI - Principles of Quantum Mechanics SN - 9781475705768 U1 - 530.12 PY - 1994/// CY - New York PB - Springer KW - Degrees of freedom KW - Quantum theory KW - Scattering theory N1 - R. Shankar has introduced major additions and updated key presentations in this second edition of Principles of Quantum Mechanics. New features of this innovative text include an entirely rewritten mathematical introduction, a discussion of Time-reversal invariance, and extensive coverage of a variety of path integrals and their applications. Additional highlights include: - Clear, accessible treatment of underlying mathematics - A review of Newtonian, Lagrangian, and Hamiltonian mechanics - Student understanding of quantum theory is enhanced by separate treatment of mathematical theorems and physical postulates - Unsurpassed coverage of path integrals and their relevance in contemporary physics The requisite text for advanced undergraduate- and graduate-level students, Principles of Quantum Mechanics, Second Edition is fully referenced and is supported by many exercises and solutions. The book’s self-contained chapters also make it suitable for independent study as well as for courses in applied disciplines UR - https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-1-4757-0576-8#bibliographic-information ER -
