Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor

Written by a highly experienced author, this book fills the need for an accessible approach to grasping and working with the concepts of quantum theory. This is made possible by the use of MATLAB codes that allow the reader to experiment with the numerical techniques described. The book is also unique in its complete coverage of such hot topics as clusters, nanocrystals, transitions and organic molecules, while illustrating the DFT, the variational and various other methods, as well as approximate wave functions.

Contraportada

Presents a unique approach to grasping the concepts of quantum theory with a focus on atoms, clusters, and crystals

Quantum theory of atoms and molecules plays a vitally important role in molecular physics, materials science, nanoscience, solid state physics and many related fields. Introductory Quantum Mechanics with MATLAB® is designed to be an accessible guide to quantum theory and its applications. The textbook uses the popular MATLAB® software for the numerical solution of quantum mechanical problems, with a particular focus on clusters and assemblies of atoms.

The textbook is written by a noted researcher and expert on the topic who introduces density functional theory, variational calculus and other practice-proven methods for the solution of quantum-mechanical problems. This important guide:

• Presents the material in a didactical manner to help students grasp the concepts and applications of quantum theory
• Covers topics such as clusters, nanocrystals, transitions and organic molecules
• Offers MATLAB® codes to solve real-life quantum mechanical problems

Written for master's and PhD students in physics, chemistry, material science, and engineering sciences, Introductory Quantum Mechanics with MATLAB® contains an accessible approach to understanding the concepts of quantum theory applied to atoms, clusters, and crystals.
