This course is designed to acquire a tool set for understanding how the microscopic world works. It introduces the basic postulates, the concept of states, observables, the peculiar role of measurement in quantum mechanics.
Matrix and wave formulations of quantum mechanics in finding the energy spectrum and the states of quantum systems.
Dirac's notation is introduced.
Emphasis is given to the wave function approach of Schrodinger.
Relation to classical mechanics is covered.
Solving the Schrodinger wave equation (for few idealized systems) to obtain the various energy levels of the particle and their corresponding wave functions.
To solve time-independent potentials (of real systems which may not be solved exactly)
