AEP 3610
Introductory Quantum Mechanics

Course information provided by the 2024-2025 Catalog. Courses of Study 2024-2025 is scheduled to publish mid-June.

Introductory course in quantum mechanics. Topics include Schrodinger's equation and the statistical interpretation of the wavefunction, potentials in 1 to 3 dimensions, Dirac notation and Hilbert space, ladder operators for harmonic potentials and angular momentum, exact solutions for the hydrogen atom and spin systems. Emphasis is on developing both an intuitive understanding of quantum mechanics and how to apply it rigorously.
