Based on the interactive program Interquanta (included on a 3 1/2" MS-DOS diskette) with its extensive 3D colour graphics features, the book guides its readers through computer experiments on important topics in quantum mechanics. More than 200 detailed, class-tested problems and two separate programs working either with or without coprocessor help the student to do quantum mechanics experiments even with little experience in that field.

Now in its 2nd edition, Quantum Mechanics on the PC presents the most up-to-date approach to elementary quantum mechanics. It is based on the interactive program Interquanta, which runs on MS-DOS either with or without coprocessor (two separate versions included on a 3 1/2'' diskette). With its extensive 3D colour graphics features, the book guides readers through computer experiments on - free particles - bound states and scattering from various potentials - two-particle problems - properties of special functions of mathematical physics. The course, with a wide variety of more than 200 detailed, class-tested problems, provides students - even with little experience in quantum mechanics - with unique practical experience of complex probability amplitudes, eigenvalues, scattering cross sections, and the like. Lecturers and teachers will find here excellent, hands-on classroom demonstrations for their quantum-mechanics course. See LooK 2/92
