The course aims to provide the students with the underpinning knowledge that will enable them to think constructively about phenomena that relate to the quantum structure of matter. It is intended that the students will gain a broad appreciation of the hierarchy of interactions that give rise to the energy levels of atoms and the consequent structure of the associated spectroscopic transitions. In comparison to the previous years more emphasis will be put on the general, mathematical structure of quantum theory, tackling topics such as Hilbert spaces and time independent perturbation theory.

Continuous assessment results (tutorial sheets) will be carried over. If one failed class test caused an overall fail, a resit for that test will be provided. If two or more class tests are below pass, a single resit class test covering the entire lecture material will be provided. The time limit of three hours reflects the larger work load of a combined test. |
