CHEM 3602 - Elementary Quantum Mechanics

(3 credits) 3 hours lecture, 3 hours lab Lecture, Lab

This is an introductory course in quantum mechanics. The basic theory and formalisms of quantum mechanics will be developed, followed by its application to a variety of model systems from atomic and molecular physics and chemistry; including a discussion of electron spin with reference to both single- and multielectron atoms. The lab will consist of classic experiments in quantum mechanics and spectroscopy.

Prerequisite(s): MATH 1203 , MATH 1202  or MATH 2200 , and PHYS 2201  with grades of “C-” or higher, or department consent.
Recommended Preparation: CHEM 2601  and MATH 3200 .
Note: Credit for both Chemistry 3602 and PHYS 3602  will not be allowed.
