Publisher's Synopsis
Quantum mechanics is a fundamental theory in physics that provides a description of the physical properties of nature at the scale of atoms and subatomic particles. It is the foundation of all quantum physics including quantum chemistry, quantum field theory, quantum technology, and quantum information science.
Quantum mechanics is deemed the hardest part of physics. Systems with quantum behavior don't follow the rules that we are used to, they are hard to see and hard to "feel", can have controversial features, exist in several different states at the same time - and even change depending on whether they are observed or not.
But don't worry. This book will help you alleviate the burden of learning Quantum Mechanics.
In fact, you could get a child to help you digest certain concepts. The great difficulty does not lie in their complexity, but their absurdity in terms of logic acquired after many years of existence in a world that constantly follows certain rules. The more the brain is free of preconceptions and ingrained notions, the better it is.
You will learn:
- What is the interference;
- The Double-Slit Experiment;
- Quantum wave function;
- Feynman's works;
- The relation between waves and particles;
- The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle;
- How particles can be in multiple places at once;
- Quantum entanglement;
- The Schrodinger's cat thought experiment;
- The Copenhagen interpretation and need for an observer and much more!
