Visual quantum mechanics

"Visual Quantum Mechanics uses the computer-generated animations found on the accompanying CD-ROM to introduce, motivate, and illustrate the concepts explained in the book. By watching QuickTime movies of the solutions of Schrodinger's equation, students will develop a feeling for the behavior of quantum-mechanical systems, which cannot be gained by conventional means.". "There is no special emphasis on computational physics or requirement that the reader know a symbolic computation package. Visual Quantum Mechanics carefully describes the mathematical principles of the theory and aims to fill a gap between classical quantum mechanics texts and mathematical physics books. Despite the presentation of rather advanced topics, the book requires only calculus, making complicated results more comprehensible via visualization. The CD-ROM provides easy access to more than 300 digital movies, animated illustrations, and interactive pictures. The supplementary material also includes hundreds of Mathematica notebooks for the reader's own experiments and Mathematica-related software for the numerical solution of Schrodinger's equation."--BOOK JACKET.
