Introduction to quantum mechanics
Chapter 10 Introduction to quantummechanicsDavid Morin, chapter gives a brief Introduction to quantum mechanics . quantum mechanics can bethought of roughly as the study of physics on very small length scales, although there arealso certain macroscopic systems it directly applies to. The descriptor quantum arisesbecause in contrast with classical mechanics , certain quantities take on only discrete , some quantities still take on continuous values, as we ll quantum mechanics , particles have wavelike properties, and a particular wave equa-tion, theSchrodinger equation, governs how these waves behave. The Schrodinger equationis different in a few ways from the other wave equations we ve seen in this book. But thesedifferences won t keep us from applying all of our usual strategies for solving a wave equationand dealing with the resulting some respect, quantum mechanics is just another example of a system governed by awave equation.
INTRODUCTION TO QUANTUM MECHANICS 1926 (Dirac): Paul Dirac showed that Heisenberg’s and Schrodinger’s versions of quantum mechanics were equivalent, in that they could both be derived from a more general version of quantum mechanics. 10.2 The Schrodinger equation
