Quantum Mechanics for Pedestrians 2

Jochen Pade studied Physics in Freiburg, Germany, where he received his PhD in Theoretical Physics in 1978. Since 1980, he has been a lecturer at the Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg, Germany. His main research interests are in theoretical physics, the didactics and popularization of science.

“This book continues the excellent introduction to quantum mechanics of the first volume ... suited for beginners to get first insights which may be deepened reading the appendices. The two volumes can be best recommended generally and especially for self studies.” (K.-E. Hellwig, zbMATH 1445.81002, 2020)
