Last update: T_KFES (02.05.2013)
A comprehensive course on quantum theory suitable both for experimental and theoretical physicists. The basic knowledge at the level of introductory undergraduate course (like OFY044 at MFFUK) is assumed. Otherwise the course is self-contained, starting with postulates and mathematical prerequisites and going on from one-body motion in a central field to the electronic structure of atoms and molecules and their interaction with electromagnetic field. Also included are theory of elastic scattering and basic knowledge of Dirac theory.
