Synopsis

Now in its 2nd edition, "Quantum Mechanics on the Personal Computer" presents an up-to-date approach to elementary quantum mechanics. It is based on the interactive programme Interquanta, which runs on MS-DOS either with or without coprocessor (two spearate versions included on a 3 1/2" diskette). With its extensive 3D colour graphics features, the book guides readers through computer experiments on: free particles; bound states and scattering from various potentials; two-particle problems; and properties of special functions of mathematical physics. The course, with a wide variety of more than 200 detailed, class-tested problems, provides students - even with little experience in quantum mechanics - with unique practical experience of complex probability amplitudes, eigenvalues, scattering cross sections, and the like. Lecturers and teachers will find hands-on classroom demonstrations for their quantum-mechanics course.
