Product Description
Advanced Quantum Mechanics, the second volume on quantum mechanics by Franz Schwabl, discusses nonrelativistic multi-particle systems, relativistic wave equations and relativistic fields. Characteristic of Schwabl’s work, this volume features a compelling mathematical presentation in which all intermediate steps are derived and where numerous examples for application and exercises help the reader to gain a thorough working knowledge of the subject. The treatment of relativistic wave equations and their symmetries and the fundamentals of quantum field theory lay the foundations for advanced studies in solid-state physics, nuclear and elementary particle physics. This text extends and complements Schwabl’s introductory Quantum Mechanics, which covers nonrelativistic quantum mechanics and offers a short treatment of the quantization of the radiation field. New material has been added to this third edition of Advanced Quantum Mechanics on Bose gases, the Lorentz covariance of the Dirac equation, and the ‘hole theory’ in the chapter "Physical Interpretation of the Solutions to the Dirac Equation."

It's everything you've ever wanted to know about quantum. April 15, 2006 D. Schmidt (Colorado Springs and Iowa City) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is one of my favorite books. The writing is clear and concise, the mathematics aren't abused, the notation is simple and inviting, and the results are very important. This book is a vast improvement over the first volume, and it can (thankfully) be used completely independently of Volume I. The treatment of multi-particle systems is one of the best I've ever seen. This book is perfect for self-study (and this is good, since I don't usually see many course offerings covering this material). The book is outstanding but, unfortunately, Springer seems to have committed itself to a perpetual decline in the quality of its books. Every copy of this particular edition that I've come across seems to have a loose binding. I haven't been able to find any differences between this edition and the older editions, so if you need to pick up a copy of this book (and any mathematician or physicist needs this book!) you might pick up an old edition instead (they're still available, new, on Amazon).
An Easy and comprehansive introduction to the subject November 5, 1999 17 out of 20 found this review helpful
This book consists of three parts. Part1 begins with an introduction on the many body theory and introducing the idea of second quantization. Part2 focuses on relativistic quantum mechanics through relativistic wave equations. The last part is an introduction to quantum field theory using some results from part2. The simple presentation of the subject and the detailed math involved makes this book a comfortable one for a begginer.
numerical methods for particles in a box? September 17, 1999 1 out of 37 found this review helpful
Well to tell you the truth actually , your book is a complete study about quantum mechanics ....Thanks for your book , i got a good result in my exams but my really problem is to find a topic about the above topic......
