Back-of-the-envelope quantum mechanics : with extensions to many-body systems and integrable PDEs /
Dimensional and order-of-magnitude estimates are practiced by almost everybody but taught almost nowhere. When physics students engage in their first theoretical research project, they soon learn that exactly solvable problems belong only to textbooks, that numerical models are long and resource con...
