Visual Quantum Mechanics uses computer generated animations to introduce, motivate, and illustrate the mathematical and physical ideas of quantum mechanics presented in the book. It followsa mathematical approach and introduces several advanced results that are made readily accessible through visualization. The accompanying CD-ROM employs the computer as a portal to a vast array of over 300 digital movies, animated illustrations, interactive pictures, and supplementary material.Selected Topics with Computer Generated Animations of Quantum Mechanical Phenomena. Using computer-generated animations found on the CD-ROM, this text is able to convey the behaviour of quantum mechanical systems which cannot be gained by conventional means. This book takes a mathematical approach rather than a physical approach.
