The matrix formulation of quantum mechanics. The harmonic oscillator (Heisenberg’s treatment). The matrices for angular momentum. Time-independent and time-dependent perturbation theory. The interaction of atomic systems with radiation. Multiparticle systems, identical particles. Pauli exclusion principle. The helium atom.
As printed in the 1972–73 to 1981–82 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.
