About this title

Synopsis:

Eastern economy student's international edition, printed in India. Territorial restrictions maybe printed on the book. PAPERBACK Edition. This best-selling classic provides a graduate-level, non-historical, modern introduction of quantum mechanical concepts. The author, J. J. Sakurai, was a renowned theorist in particle theory. This revision by Jim Napolitano retains the original material and adds topics that extend the texts usefulness into the 21st century. The introduction of new material and modification of existing material, appears in a way that better prepares the student for the next course in quantum field theory. Students will still find such classic developments as neutron interferometer experiments, Feynman path integrals, correlation measurements and Bells inequality. The style and treatment of topics is now more consistent across chapters. The Second Edition has been updated for currency and consistency across all topics and has been checked for the right amount of mathematical rigor.

Book Description:

A re-issued edition of this well-known modern quantum mechanics textbook. The Second Edition provides a graduate-level, non-historical, modern introduction of quantum mechanical concepts, from the Schrödinger Wave Equation to SO(4) symmetry and its application to solving the hydrogen atom, in one comprehensive and engaging volume.
