Introductory Quantum Mechanics with MATLAB is designed to be an accessible guide to quantum theory and its applications. The textbook uses MATLAB for the analytical and 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 guide:
- Presents the material in a didactical manner to help students grasp the concepts and applications of quantum theory
- Covers a wealth of cutting-edge topics such as clusters, nanocrystals, transitions, and organic molecules
- Offers MATLAB codes for download online to solve real-life quantum-mechanical problems
The textbook is written for master's and PhD students in physics, chemistry, material science, and engineering sciences.
