Books by Berthold-georg (Nus Englert

Reviews the basics of kinematics and dynamics, at the outset, including discussions of Bohr's principle of complementarity and Schwinger's quantum action principle. The Born series, the Lippmann-Schwinger equation, and Fermi's golden rule are recurring themes in the treatment of the central subject matter.

Starting from the simplest quantum phenomenon, this work covers the Stern-Gerlach experiment with its choice between two discrete outcomes, and ending with one-dimensional continuous systems, the physical concepts and notions as well as the mathematical formalism of quantum mechanics.

Aimed at the reader with minimal knowledge of a standard brief introduction to quantum mechanics with its typical emphasis on one-dimensional position wave functions. This book includes abstract and powerful formalism, followed by reviews of quantum kinematics and quantum dynamics.
