Course syllabus and organization

Single session

Responsible
Lesson period
First semester
Lectures will be online in synchro mode
Course syllabus
The first part of the course will study in more details the general structure of Quantum Mechanics, beyond the material seen in the course of Mathematical Physics 3. In the second part we will consider applications, most probably to the Physics of Matter.
Prerequisites for admission
Mathematical Physics 3 course
Teaching methods
Lectures
Teaching Resources
For the first part, the classical textbooks by Landau, Dirac and Feynman; the material for the second part will be mentioned during the course
Assessment methods and Criteria
Oral examination; this will aim at evaluating the understanding of the theory and the capacity to apply it.
