※ 引述《Linderman (我要努力力爭上游)》之銘言： : 建議你先修近物或是看近物的書推薦Eisberg的書或是Beiser的書 : Eisberg的書超讚,寫很多歷史方面的東西尤其Eisberg的黑體輻射寫的很好 Eisberg & Resnick's text on "Quantum Physics" was used popularly as a textbook for a junior course on QM at many universities many years ago. It is a very good text for a person who wants to learn quantum physics for the first time. However, it only deals with the old quantum theory (1900-1924), Schrodinger's wave mechanics, and an introduction to molecules, solids, and elementary particles. Its drawback is that it only emphasizes the PDE approach to solving QM problem, ignoring other formalisms of quantum mechanics. Thus, in order to get a more general, complete idea of what QM is really about, it is better to use the second textbook on QM (such as Griffiths' text, Liboff's text, Ohanian's text, or Gasiorowicz's text) to supplement Eisberg & Resnick's text for one-year course on QM at the undergrad level. : 再看Griffiths和Gasiorowicz的書,這二本都寫的很好,Griffiths矩陣力學方面提很少 The new features for Gasiorowicz's third edition are: (1) the addition of a new chapter on " entanglement and its implications" (2) the inclusion of a new topic on "a three-level system" (3) the inclusion of Web supplements (where are free) (in PDF format) on many special topics .e.g., Einstein's derivation for Planck distribution law. (4) the expansion of the discussion on the general QM structure And others. Its strength lies in covering almost everything in about 480 pages, ranging from the old quantum theoty to Radiation theory & Collision theory. It is a good text for brushing up your knowledge in QM, not a good textbook for learning QM for the first time. : 然後進階的就是Shankar,Sakurai或是Merzbacher的量子力學了, There are many other excellent texts on QM at this level (the first-year grad level). To name a few, they include Schiff's text, Baym's text, Messiah's text, and Claude Cohen-Tannoudji et al's text. There are also many excellent texts on QM written by Nobel laureates, including Fermi's text, Feynman's text, Pauling & Wilson's text, Schwinger's text, Heisenberg's text, and Dirac's text. These texts savor of the authors' idiosyncrasy. They can serve as outstanding references that complement current texts on QM. By the way, there is an old book, written by H.S. Green, which exclusively deals with matrix mechanics. It is hard to find it now, but it might be available at an old university's library. Also, the book titled " quantum mechanics in simple matrix form" (by Thomas Jordan) is an interesting text on QM. Chapter 22 of this text gives a unique way to approach the hydrogen problem. If one wants to use Feynman's path integral approach to solving the hydrogen atom, he/she may want to refer to this following valuable text: " Path Integrals in Quantum Mechanics, Statistics, & Polymer Physics, & Financial Markets" by Hagen Kleinert. After going through this text, he/she will find that dealing with the problem is not easy at all. As to "the factorization method", Ohanian's text is probably the best text to refer to. It deals with the operator method not only to the harmonic oscillator but also to many other problems including the hydrogen atom! QM is a deep & broad subject, so the aforementioned texts just touch its surface. There is plenty of literature (texts & papers) for readers to explore, read & digest further. ######################################################################## " The known is finite, the unknown infinite; intellectually we stand on an islet in the midst of an illimitable ocean of inexplicability.
