Feynman Physics Lectures 3 - Quantum Mechanics

These three volumes are a historical record of Feynman's physics courses taken by all first- and second-year students at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) between 1961 and 1964. The third volume of this lecture series attempts to elucidate the basic aspects of quantum mechanics, which are the simplest and most general. The first lessons challenge the idea of probability amplitude, the interference of amplitude, the abstract concept of a situation, the overlap and separation of levels. The time dependence of states with certain energy levels was addressed later, and these ideas were applied to two-state systems for the first time. The lecture then moves on to consider more complex systems, laying the groundwork for a more complete scheme of the quantum mechanics of angular momentum and the progression of electrons within a crystal. The introduction to quantum mechanics ends with a discussion of the Schrödinger wave function, the differential equation, and a solution for the hydrogen atom.
