INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
This manual presents the theoretical framework of quantum physics.
Starting from the crisis of classical physics and going to study the solutions proposed at the beginning of the twentieth century, we will arrive at the exposure of quantum mechanics based on Schrodinger's equation.
The salient points of this revolution and the main differences with classical physics will be highlighted.
Indeterminism and the probabilistic vision will be the conceptual leap necessary for the rigorous definition of quantum mechanics.
Furthermore, quantum field theory as the final result of scientific investigation in quantum terms and its successful application given by quantum electrodynamics will be exhibited.
Finally, the questions still open in physics will be enunciated, such as the reconciliation with nuclear physics and with general relativity.
A separate chapter is devoted to notable applications of quantum mechanics, such as solid-state physics and semiconductor physics.
What is set out in this manual is only partially addressed at the university level, unless you choose a course of study in Physics.
To fully understand the above, especially from the third chapter onwards, knowledge of advanced mathematical analysis is required (differential equations and nabla algebra).
