Quantum Mechanics Problems and Solutions
-
Hello all, Been keeping busy in the physics dept. at UC Irvine as a grad student... for anyone interested in Quantum Mechanics, here is a link to the problems and solutions to all the homework in our graduate Quantum Mechanics course, the second course in a three-part series. http://www.ags.uci.edu/~bchart/notes/QMProbSolts.pdf[^] Let me know if there are any corrections or mistakes! :) If you need help with the math or any math or physics terms, search for them using: 'PhysicsWorld' or 'MathWorld' (if one doesn't work, then try the other! at PhysicsWorld[^ or MathWorld[^] or use Google. Enjoy! Sincerely Yours, Brian Hart Department of Physics and Astronomy University of California, Irvine
Ah...the memories... Love this stuff - thanks for sharing, Brian. cheers, Chris Maunder

After your perturbation in eq. 2.8, you go on to compute an expectation value for θ on page 10. After you substitute terms, you state the equation is exactly equal to itself. :~ Did you intend to list the same equation twice? - Nitron

sorry, 1 more thing... Before equation 2.25, (page 12) instead of:
There results
Try:
Their results:
(not to be picky ;P ) Doh! (1.11, p.16) too! - Nitron

Let me know if there are any corrections or mistakes! :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh: What a comedian!!! Marc Help! I'm an AI running around in someone's f*cked up universe simulator.

Notice the final line is the first-order correction term to the expectation value, not the expectation value itself...that was the original claim. What I did is take the final line of the computation of the expactation value and then break it into a sum of two terms, + < |Integral| > and it is the second term which is the deisired result. This leads to the original claim. Q.E.D. Nitron wrote: Did you intend to list the same equation twice? Typically once I show the claim I like to remind the reader what the original claim was.
