Chapter 1 revises maths and mechanics from the final two school years that are needed to start quantum mechanics. Then chapters 2-5 use these skills, and a little more maths that is later introduced, to explore quantum phenomena through solving problems.

This book offers a fresh perspective on some of the central experimental and theoretical works that laid the foundations for today's quantum mechanics: It traces the theoretical and mathematical development of the hypotheses that put forward to explain puzzling experimental results; it also examines their interconnections and how they together evolved into modern quantum theory. Particular attention is paid to J.J. Thomson's atomic modeling and experiments at the Cavendish Laboratory, Max Planck's struggle to explain the experimental results of Heinrich Rubens and Ferdinand Kurlbaum, as well as the path leading from Louis de Broglie’s ideas to the wave theory of Erwin Schrödinger. Combining his experience in teaching quantum mechanics with his interest in the historical roots of the subject, the author has created a valuable resource for understanding quantum physics through its history, and a book that is appreciated both by working physicists and historians.

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to quantum mechanics, supported by numerous solved exercises. Aiming to be both exhaustive and educational, it minimises overly formal aspects by presenting the wave mechanical approach to quantum mechanics. The book simplifies and rigorously covers a large set of fundamental topics such as potential wells and barriers, wave packets, harmonic oscillators, and the hydrogen atom. It also addresses spin and, in simple terms, the conceptual difficulties of quantum physics and Bell’s inequalities. The discussion extends to relativistic quantum mechanics. Each chapter includes exercises designed to test comprehension and facilitate optimal assimilation of the material, and are followed by detailed solutions. Intended for both personal study and course support, this book is valuable for anyone curious about the subject. However, it is specifically targeted at undergraduate and master’s students in physics, chemistry, and mathematics, as well as engineering students.

This quantum mechanics primer will accompany the reader from school to university. The formal basis of the subject is briefly introduced, and the reader is then quickly given the tools to start solving problems as diverse as quantising motion in potentials, quantum mechanical tunnelling, muon catalysed fusion, pair production, motion in nanostructures, and the interference of particles as waves. Chapters 1-3 guide the transition from school to university, and develop the skills and understanding that are typically tested in admissions to university physics, maths and engineering degrees. Chapters 2-5 cover university-level quantum mechanics courses, up to the second year of a typical physics degree. All problems can be answered and marked on the Isaac Physics online platform. Registration is free and gives both students and teachers personalised support through a sophisticated online marking system for all problems. This second edition is a co-publication between Periphyseos Press and Cambridge University Press.
