The second part of this course describes selected practical applications of quantum mechanics. In Chapter 12, time-independent perturbation theory is used to investigate the Stark effect, the Zeeman effect, fine structure, and hyperfine structure, in the hydrogen atom. Time-dependent perturbation theory is employed to study radiative ...
