Quantum Mechanics for Nuclear Structure, Volume 2

Professor Kris Heyde

The first volume of Quantum Mechanics for Nuclear Structure  introduced the reader to the basic elements that underpin the one-body formulation of quantum mechanics.  [/i] Volume two [i]  follows on from its predecessor by examining topics essential for understanding the many-body formulation. The algebraic structure of quantum theory is emphasised throughout as an essential aspect of the mathematical formulation of many-body quantum systems.
