• Textbooks

  The course does not have one main textbook. Furthermore, most textbooks on the topic contain advanced material not covered in the course. For some extra reading:

  • The Feynman lectures on physics - volume III

• Course policy

  The course covers a range of topics ranging from material partially covered in high school (i.e. waves, de Broglie, structure of the atom) as well as more advanced topics. The main challenge of the course is to explain basic notions in quantum mechanics while avoiding heavy mathematical formalism. This includes introducing general notions, explaining  basic experiments and Gedanken-Experiment and clarifying paradoxes. 

  Grading

  • Homework (0 points):

  • Oral exam (100%): The course will be graded based on a short oral exam, where students will be asked to show proficiency in the lecture material.  

  General

  • Email: should only be used for communication on personal matters, all questions of relevance to more than one person should be asked via the Q&A forum, to avoid repetition.
  • Physics teaching committee notice
  
• Remote teaching
