Publisher's Synopsis
Quantum mechanics is a field in physics that studies atomic and subatomic particles. A principal characteristic of this science is the quantization of the physical quantities of energy, angular momentum and momentum. The objects under study in quantum mechanics exhibit wave particle duality and there exists a fundamental limit to the precision in the determination of physical quantities. The study of quantum entanglement is an important and upcoming area in this field. The applications of quantum mechanics vary from electronics and cryptography to quantum computing. This book presents the complex subject of quantum mechanics in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. It unfolds the innovative aspects of quantum physics which will be crucial for the holistic understanding of the subject matter. Coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this textbook an invaluable source of knowledge.
