这本书是我在巴黎综合理工学院多年来讲授的量子力学入门讲座的修订和扩展版本。这不是一本教科书,只是我讲课的记录。我和我的同事兼朋友Jean Dalibard在同一个Springer收藏中出版了两本书。一本是教科书:量子力学,J。L. Basdevant和Jean Dalibard,Heidelberg:Springer-Verlag,2002年(2005年修订)。另一个是问题及其解决方案的集合:量子力学求解器,J。L. Basdevant和Jean Dalibard,海德堡:Springer-Verlag,2000年(2019年完全修订)。所有这些问题都与当代实验或理论的发展有关,其中一些在我们进行书面考试前一年左右就出现在专业文献中。不用说,如果这第二本书是有点不寻常,有许多优秀的教科书量子力学,其中一些杰作,我经常咨询和参考。言论,最终说服我写本文本是双重的。我写的关于这个主题的文章,无论是用法语还是英语,都被严重剥夺了生命,行动,思想,我总是喜欢把这个主题的思想和应用放在叙述中。实验研究和随后发现的基本原理的人性方面使讲座生动活泼(除了在一个困难的论点之后头脑需要休息几分钟的事实之外)。我认为,如果科学教学不包括人的方面,无论是讲师,观众,还是它所致力的主题,科学教学都是不完整的。此外,我的第一本书缺乏任何练习或问题。因此,填补这一空白一直是我的主要目标之一。本书包含练习和问题,当解决它们的工具已经被处理时,然后是它们的解决方案和可能的评论。其中许多涉及相当现代的物理学(与量子力学求解器没有重叠)。答案在书的最后给出。我对这本书的内容做了一个主要的修改:第一章。8关于光子量子力学是从粒子波动性的证明开始的。然而,第一个被发现的量子是光子,证明它的粒子性质花了很长时间。这个主题并不常见,因为光子(零质量粒子)的物理学的完整描述涉及相对论量子场论。然而,实验证明的粒子性质的v
This book is a revised and extended version of the introductory lectures on quantum mechanics that I delivered for many years at the Ecole Polytechnique. It is not a textbook, simply an account of my lectures. I have published two books in the same Springer collection with my colleague and friend Jean Dalibard. One is a textbook: Quantum Mechanics, J.-L. Basdevant and Jean Dalibard, Heidelberg: Springer-Verlag, 2002 (revised in 2005). The other one is a collection of problems and their solutions: The Quantum Mechanics Solver, J.-L. Basdevant and Jean Dalibard, Heidelberg: Springer-Verlag, 2000 (completely revised in 2019). All of these problems concern contemporary experimental or theoretical developments, some of which had appeared in the specialized literature a year or so before we gave them as written examinations. Needless to say that if this second book is somewhat unusual, there are many excellent textbooks on quantum mechanics, among which some masterpieces which I often consult and refer to.The remarks that eventually convinced me to write the present text are twofold. The texts I had written on the subject, both in French and in English, were terribly deprived of life, action, thoughts, and questioning which I always liked to put in the narrative account of the ideas and applications of the subject. The human aspect of the experimental investigations and of the ensuing discovery of basic principles made the lectures lively (besides the fact that the minds need to rest for few minutes after following a difficult argument). I feel that teaching science is incomplete if it does not incorporate the human dimension, be it of the lecturer, of the audience, and of the topic to which it is devoted. In addition, my first books were lacking any exercise or problem. Therefore, it has been one of my major goals to fill that void. The present book contains exercises and problems, placed when the tools to solve them have been treated, followed by their solutions and possible comments. Many of them refer to quite modern physics (there is no overlap with The Quantum Mechanics Solver). The solutions are given at the end of the book. I have modified the content of this book by one main addition: Chap. 8 on the photon. Quantum mechanics starts with the demonstration of the wave behavior of particles. However, the first quantum being that was found is the photon and the proof of its particle nature took a long time. This topic is not found often since a complete account of the physics of photons, zero mass particles, involves relativistic quantum field theory. However, the experimental proof of the particle nature of v
