Course given during the fall & spring semester since 2025-2026 over 14 weeks (3 hours theory), please see also the syllabus.
The course materials will be added during the semester.
Study materials and guidance
- Course syllabus (pdf)
- David Miller's webpage containing links to his course materials. His textbook on Quantum Mechanics is a great alternative to the textbook of Griffiths that we are following in this course.
- QuVis: Web site with quantum mechanics visualizations and simulations for educational purposes.
- QuTiP: A computational library for quantum mechanics/optics simulations in Python.
- Applet(s) by Paul Falstad with simulations for 1D quantum mechanical systems.
Exam questions & solutions
These are questions and solutions of example exams and/or previous midterm and final exams
(and retake opportunities)
Further background materials
These are some further materials which could be of interest for those who want to look into more advanced topics or applications/computations/simulations.
