This second edition is a comprehensive introduction to non-relativistic quantum mechanics for advanced undergraduate students in physics and related fields. It provides a strong conceptual background in the most important theoretical aspects of quantum mechanics, and extensive experience of the mathematical tools required to solve problems. It also gives the opportunity to use quantum ideas to confront modern experimental realizations of quantum systems, and numerous visualizations of quantum concepts and phenomena. This edition includes many new discussions of modern quantum systems, such as Bose–Einstein condensates, the quantum Hall effect and wave-packet revivals.
