Quantum Mechanics Course Information

Main Text: Griffiths, Introduction to Quantum Mechanics,
Prentice-Hall, 1995.

Reference Text: You will need a good set of Math Tables,
such as CRC Standard Mathematical Tables.
You will probably also need to frequently consult a 
mathematical methods in physics book, such as:

  Mary Boas, Mathematical Methods in the Physical Sciences,
and/or
  George Arfken, Mathematical Methods for Physicists,


Part 1: Chapters 1-5 for Fall of 95.
