Quantum Mechanics for Dummies?

Quantum mechanics is the branch of physics that studies the behavior of particles at the smallest scales. It involves concepts like superposition, where particles can exist in multiple states simultaneously, as well as particle-wave duality, where particles exhibit properties of both particles and waves. Quantum mechanics is essential for understanding the behavior of atoms and subatomic particles.


What are the best books for understanding quantum mechanics?

Answer (1)The Elegant Universe: Superstrings, Hidden Dimensions, and the Quest for the Ultimate Theory Written by Brian GreeneQuantum Mechanics, written by Albert MessiahThe Quantum Universe, by Tony Hey and Patrick Waltershttp://books.google.com/books?id=mwssSDXzkNcCAnswer (2)The Elegant Universe, though a good book, covers too many topics. If you are particularly interested in quantum mechanics then I would recommend, it may require previous knowledge about the topic as it covers much on String Theory, T.O.E., and Grand Unified Theories.Answer (3)The New Quantum Universs .By Tony Hey - Patrick Walters -Popular Physics book (No math)In Search of Schrodinger's CatBy John Gribbin-Textbook (Junior Level Undergraduate text, minimum of Calculus II necessary)Introduction to Quantum MechanicsBy David GriffithsI would definitely recommend "In Search of Schrodinger's Cat" I have read it about 6 times and its a great book.


What happens in the quantum cafe?

The quantum cafe is used by Brain Greene in his book The Elegant Universe to illustrate the weirdness of quantum mechanics. It is also featured in the NOVA documentary with the same name based on his book. A lot of things happen in the cafe, people and objects change in shape, objects teleport around, you order one drink but you get another. As Brain himself remarks you are never sure what you will get when you order something. Since this is just an illustration it is not meant to be a literal description of quantum mechanics. Most of the things in the quantum cafe can be related to the Uncertainty Principle of quantum mechanics.

How can I learn more about a turbocharger?

You can learn about turbochargers from a mechanics book and also from videos on the web! Videos are great because not only do you get to learn more about them but you can visually see and watch how it works and what a turbocharger does.


What is a good book to teach yourself Quantum Mechanics and Subatomic Particle Physics?

Self teaching yourself Quantum Mechanics? I would recommend any of Weinberg's textbooks (such as "Theory of Fields"). However, if you are more interested in a cursory understanding of Quantum Mechanics and Subatomic Particle Physics, I would recommend reading the following pop-sci books: 1. A Briefer Theory of Time, Steven Hawking 2. The Elegant Universe, Brian Greene 3. Hyperspace, Michio Kaku The latter two of the three mentioned focus on the more theoretical, but I read these three books and learned quite a bit of Quantum Mechanics, Standard Theory, etc. Two further books worth looking at if you are learning the basics of quantum theory in quite an easy-giong manner are: 'In Search of Shroedinger's Cat' 'Introducing Quantum Theory' I have read both and strongly recommend them.
