Course Coordinator
The basic purpose of this course is to introduce basic quantum mechanics to the students who have done a substantial amount of differential and integral calculation and calculus, a level of classical physics. However, students have no or limited introduction to quantum mechanics.
This bridge course is divided into two modules. In the first module, we will discuss only quantum physics and essential ideas of the quantum theory.
This part basically cover the development of the quantum physics in the first two decades of 20th century, that is starting from 1900 to roughly around 1924. Various experiments during this period shows that our classical understanding of physics needed to be revised. In 1924, scientists like Schrödinger, Isenberg, Pauli and Dirac came out with a new theory that is known as the modern quantum mechanics, as we know today.
