MTF067 Quantum Physics 6.0 ECTS credits | |
TIMEPERIOD: Q II LANGUAGE:English/Swedish EXAMINER Per Arve Univ lekt PREREQUISITES Modern physics, vector calculus and series, complex functions and the theory of transformations. COURSE AIM The goal of the course is to give knowledge of - basic methods for the calculation of quantum states - the quantum physics description of matter - statistical description of atomic and molecular thermal motion CONTENTS In this course, quantum physics is presented by using simple physical situations. The general structure of the mathematical solutions and methods are studied, as well as applications in nuclear physics, atomic physics, molecular physics, and solid state physics. Additionally, in the course is the influence of temperature treated with an emphasis on the Boltzmann factor, which gives relative probabilities for thermal excitations. TEACHING Teaching comprises of class lectures and laboratory exercises. EXAMINATION Written examination at the end of the course. COURSE GRADE SCALE: 3, 4, 5 ITEMS/CREDITS | |
Laboratory work | 0.00ECTS |
Written exam | 6.00ECTS |
