Quantum Theory III

Course Description

This is the third part of a three-semester introduction to Quantum Mechanics. The following topics are covered:

  • time-dependent perturbation theory
  • scattering
  • a charged particle in an external electromagnetic field
  • quantization of the field

The learning objective is to develop the ability to apply Quantum Mechanics to physically relevant time-dependent problems, as well as to acquire a basic understanding of the interaction between charged particles and fields.
