Relativistic and Non-Relativistic Quantum Mechanics

Luis Grave de Peralta is Full Professor of Physics in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Texas Tech University. He is Author of more than 90 articles in academic peer-reviewed journals. This book is the result of three full years of research and the author’s experience teaching.Maricela Fernandez-Losada has a Ph.D. in Theoretical Physics. She is Co-author of the Spanish version of the book.Gage Eichman, Abhishek Singh, and Gabrielle Prime are undergraduate physics students. They participated in a quantum mechanics course offered by L. Grave de Peralta. The approach proposed in the manuscript was applied in this course. Their experience as students on the receiving end of the proposed approach was invaluable for the culmination of the manuscript.
