Contents

One-particle quantum mechanics: Correspondence principle, Schrödinger equation, observables and their operators, eigenvalue problems, uncertainty relations, angular momentum, hydrogen atom, representations, stationary perturbation theory, variational methods, scattering theory, time-dependent perturbation theory.


Qualification Goals

Students acquire a sound working knowledge of the basic concepts of quantum mechanics. They learn the mathematical methods and physical models used in single-particle quantum mechanics. The basic knowledge imparted is an essential prerequisite for the more advanced modules of the course and the description of many phenomena in modern physics.


Prerequisites

Translation is missing. Here is the German original:

Kenntnisse des Stoffes des Moduls Theoretische Mechanik


Applicability

Module imported from B.Sc. Physik.

When studying B.Sc. Mathematics, this module can be attended in the study area Minor subject Physics.

Die Wahlmöglichkeit des Moduls ist durch seine Klassifikation als Theoriemodul aus dem Bachelor Physik (TB) beschränkt.
