Beschreibung

Presents a unique approach to grasping the concepts of quantum theory with a focus on atoms, clusters, and crystals

Quantum theory of atoms and molecules plays a vitally important role in molecular physics, materials science, nanoscience, solid state physics and many related fields. Introductory Quantum Mechanics with MATLAB® is designed to be an accessible guide to quantum theory and its applications. The textbook uses the popular MATLAB® software for the numerical solution of quantum mechanical problems, with a particular focus on clusters and assemblies of atoms.

The textbook is written by a noted researcher and expert on the topic who introduces density functional theory, variational calculus and other practice-proven methods for the solution of quantum-mechanical problems. This important guide:

  • Presents the material in a didactical manner to help students grasp the concepts and applications of quantum theory
  • Covers topics such as clusters, nanocrystals, transitions and organic molecules
  • Offers MATLAB® codes to solve real-life quantum mechanical problems

Written for master's and PhD students in physics, chemistry, material science, and engineering sciences, Introductory Quantum Mechanics with MATLAB® contains an accessible approach to understanding the concepts of quantum theory applied to atoms, clusters, and crystals.
