Jim Napolitano Livres

From the atom to our societies, an unparalleled introduction to how the science of the small explains the greatest phenomena in our lives

The sixth edition of this textbook provides a clear and current exploration of quantum mechanics, tailored for undergraduate students in physics and related fields. It emphasizes essential concepts and lays a solid foundation for further specialized studies, ensuring that readers grasp the fundamental principles of the subject effectively.

"This best-selling classic provides a graduate-level, non-historical, modern introduction of quantum mechanical concepts. The author, J.J. Sakurai, was a renowned theorist in particle theory. This revision by Jim Napolitano retains the original material and adds topics that extend the book's usefulness into the 21st century. The introduction of new material, and modification of existing material, appears in a way that better prepares readers for the next course in quantum field theory. Readerse will still find such classic developments as neutron interferometer experiments, Feynman path integrals, correlation measurements, and Bell's inequality."--Pub. desc.

This new edition has been revised throughout to take into account developments in this field over the past fifteen years.

This textbook offers a clear and concise introduction to mathematical physics, specifically designed for undergraduate students enrolled in a one-semester course. It bridges the gap between mathematics and physics, making complex concepts more accessible to learners. Emphasizing essential mathematical tools and their applications in physics, it serves as a valuable resource for students aiming to strengthen their understanding of the subject.
