This course covers fundamental concepts in modern physics. Topics include the wave-particle duality of matter, the probabilistic interpretation of wave functions, and the Schrödinger equation in one dimension. It also delves into operators in quantum mechanics, eigenvalues, eigenfunctions, and the theory of angular momentum. The course further explores the Schrödinger equation for a particle in three dimensions, the hydrogen atom, matrix representation of quantum mechanics, spin angular momentum, and the addition of angular momenta. Finally, time-independent perturbation theory is discussed.
The course content is structured around key areas of modern physics.
