Welcome to the Topics in Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Computing website. Here you will find the ancillary files referenced throughout the Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Computing Notes book, the Angular Momentum and The Hydrogen Atom book, and the solutions manuals. The Angular Momentum and the Hydrogen Atom book is a hard bound, full color book consisting of the first six chapters of the Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Computing Notes book. You can download the files by clicking on the appropriate chapter button below.
Chapter one is a review of complex numbers, vectors, and matrices. Chapter two is a review of vector rotations and reflections. Chapter three introduces the postulates of quantum mechanics, state vectors, and the density operator. Chapters four and five introduce angular momentum. Chapter six discusses the hydrogen atom. Chapters seven and eight introduce the fundamental unit of quantum information, the qubit, and present a series of quantum computing topics. Chapter nine discusses polarization states and optical elements, including polarizers and beam splitters. Five appendices are provided which include a quick review of Fourier transforms and Boolean algebra.
