Sumario:This book is a detailed introduction to quantum mechanics and its applications in chemistry and physics. All required math is clearly explained, including intermediate steps in derivations. Most of the elementary quantum mechanical models--including particles in boxes, rigid rotor, harmonic oscillator, barrier penetration, hydrogen atom--are clearly and completely presented. Applications of these models to selected real world topics are also included. This new edition includes many new topics such as band theory and heat capacity of solids, spectroscopy of molecules and complexes (including applications to ligand field theory), and small molecules of astrophysical interest. The book presents results of quantum mechanical calculations that can be performed with readily available software and provides discussions of spin-orbit coupling, group theory, and barrier penetration (quantum mechanical tunneling) that touch upon hot topics, such as superconductivity and scanning tunneling microscopy.
