Modern Quantum Mechanics, Revised Edition by J J Sakurai

Modern Quantum Mechanics, Revised Edition by J J Sakurai

This best-selling classic sets the standard for the quantum mechanics physics market. It provides a graduate-level, non-historical, modern introduction of quantum mechanical concepts for first year graduate students. The author was a noted theorist in particle theory, and was well renowned in his area of expertise. This revised edition retains the original material, but adds topics that extend its usefulness into the 21st century. Students will still find such classic developments as neutron interferometer experiments, Feyman path integrals, correlation measurements, and Bell's inequality. Updated material includes time independent perturbation theory for The Degenerate Case which can be found in 5. New supplementary material is at the end of the text.

J.J. Sakura was a well-known particle physicist who taught at UCLA (1970-1982) and the University of Chicago (1964-1970). His Ph.D. was awarded to him. In 1958, he graduated from Cornell University in New York. He made significant contributions to particle physics before his prematurely in 1982, while visiting CERN in Geneva, at the age of 49. He'd also worked as a visiting scientist at the California Institute of Technology, the Universities of Tokyo and Nagoya, the University of Paris d'Orsay, the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa, the Stanford Linear Accelerator, CERN in Geneva, and the Max Planck Institute in Munich. He was a Sloan Fellow from 1962 to 1966, an American Physical Society Fellow from 1964 to 1982, a Guggenheim Fellow from 1975 to 1976, and a von Humboldt Fellow from 1981 to 1982.
