Quantum Physics : Fundamentals and Applications

A comprehensive textbook which adopts a phenomenological approach to quantum physics, introducing concepts first before progressively developing the necessary mathematics. Theory is closely connected to modern research applications such as quantum optics, nanophysics, and entanglement, giving a balanced understanding of these important topics.

An impressively comprehensive textbook adopting a phenomenological approach to quantum physics. The chapters cover everything from basic definitions of key concepts to detailed discussions of the underlying theoretical framework, walking students step-by-step through the necessary mathematics and drawing clear connections between the theory and the most important modern research applications including quantum optics, fluids, nanophysics, entanglement, information, and relativity. With this book, students and researchers will have access to hundreds of real-world examples, exercises, and illustrations to support and expand their understanding. Instructors can tailor the content to suit the length and level of their course and will have access to an online solutions manual with fully worked solutions to all 300+ exercises in the book. Other online resources include Python simulations, additional exercises, and detailed appendices.
