Classical Mechanics: From Newtonian to Lagrangian Formulation by Prof.
#Solid state theory walter a harrison instructor series#
For me best lecture series on CM in India. Every second this guy throws some vital information. The Series is a little slow in pace. - Dhananjay Vijay Kapse It has everything. Classical Mechanics (Fall 2011) by Leonard Susskind: A really good introduction to the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian approach.Experimental demonstrations for every concept discussed. - Dhananjay Vijay Kapse Only the Newtonian approach is covered not Lagrangian. MIT 8.01 Classical Mechanics by Walter Lewin: Introductory course.Yes, the man is so famous that he has subreddit after him - Ganesh Chandra Lakkaraju Side note:- The notes are available on Reddit. The man starts from a set and builds up to Hilbert Space just to show why this weird thing called Quantum Mechanics works. Mathematical methods of Quantum Information Theory by Frederic Schuller: This is one of the scratch that, the rigorous treatment of quantum mechanics I know.The instructor works out the mathematics with you and explains the concepts in a very intuitive way. The course ends with a teaser for the realization of quantum optics with the help of cavity quantum electrodynamics(QED). It culminates in the Jaynes Cummings model where light is quantized. The course starts off with the semiclassical picture where the atom is considered to be quantum while light is taken to be classical. Quantum Optics by Immanuel Bloch: A very comprehensive introduction to quantum optics.Even this book is not even good for revision. This book and lectures are not even ordered in an intuitive way. The first-time learner of quantum mechanics can't learn from it. I think video and the book both are a waste of time. Content in book and lecture is identical even in order or chronology whatever you want to say. I used it as complementary to Griffiths - Kunal Vyas I have gone through lectures on NPTEL and book on quantum mechanics by Ajoy Ghatak. There is no bra ket notation so not that appropriate for a post-graduate level course but a nice introduction. Ajoy Ghatak NPTEL: It is a good starting point for QM. Quantum Mechanics and Applications by Prof.He starts from very basic and covers all graduate-level topics.- Rahul If you are New to Quantum Mechanics then this lecture series gives u a better understanding. Quantum Mechanics by HC Verma: This lecture series is in Hindi.Videos are not that slow or fast, easy to understand English used in lectures, Explanation is fantastic for a freshman in Quantum Mechanics. But these lectures are not that level of JEST/TIFR GS Physics Exam. Shankar's videos on 'Introduction to QM' is very useful for BSc as well as IIT-JAM Physics preparation. Introduction To Quantum Mechanics by R Shankar: For any subject, Introduction is much needed before getting into tedious mathematics of that subject, and personally I found R.Also, attempt the Problem sets and see the lecture notes if possible (for that you have to go to the course website which is probably given in the descriptions of the videos). If one is following a book like Griffiths, this will supplement it well. That is a perfect introduction to QM for someone who hasn't started the subject. MIT 8.04 Quantum Physics I, version by Barton Zwiebach: Barton Zweibach is a String Theorist from MIT and he is great at teaching.( You can get the idea)( It doesn't mean that he doesn't cover technical aspects in details). The lecturer takes 2 lectures to start with an actual equation. This course doesn't just run through the equations, but the lecturer focuses on giving intuition about concepts. MIT 8.04 Quantum Physics I, version by Allan Addams: A really good introductory course on quantum mechanics.
