Using Mathematica for Quantum Mechanics: A Student’s Manual
@inproceedings{Schmied2019UsingMF, title={Using Mathematica for Quantum Mechanics: A Student’s Manual}, author={R. Schmied}, year={2019} }
This book is an attempt to help students transform all of the concepts of quantum mechanics into concrete computer representations, which can be constructed, evaluated, analyzed, and hopefully understood at a deeper level than what is possible with more abstract representations. It was written for a Master's and PhD lecture given yearly at the University of Basel, Switzerland. The goal is to give a language to the student in which to speak about quantum physics in more detail, and to start the… CONTINUE READING
