A Model of Time
... In special relativity space and time are linked through the assumption that the speed of light in vacuum, c, is a constant and the maximal speed at which any signal can pass through space. Light signals are used to gauge clocks and the framework of relativity is thus derived. In the EPR (Einstein-Po ...

In short, by all practical measures, quantum mechanics can lay claim to the most successful physical theory of all time. Unfortunately, as well as being ...

... No single text covers all the material in this course. You are not required to purchase any texts. For the first part of the course, a good elementary text on quantum mechanics is best (e.g., Anderson, Cohen-Tannoudji...).

The statistical interpretation of quantum mechanics
... For a brief period at the beginning of 1926, it looked as though there were, suddenly, two self-contained but quite distinct systems of explanation extant: matrix mechanics and wave mechanics. But Schrödinger himself soon demonstrated their complete equivalence. Wave mechanics enjoyed a very great d ...
