The late J.J. Sakurai, noted theorist in particle physics, was born in Tokyo, Japan in 1933. He received his B.A. from Harvard University in 1955 and his PhD from Cornell University in 1958. He was appointed as an assistant professor at the University of Chicago, where he worked until he became a professor at the University of California, Los Angeles in 1970. Sakurai died in 1982 while he was visiting a professor at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland.
Jim Napolitano earned an undergraduate Physics degree at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1977, and a PhD in Physics from Stanford University in 1982. Since that time, he has conducted research in experimental nuclear and particle physics, with an emphasis on studying fundamental interactions and symmetries. He joined the faculty at Rensselaer in 1992 after working as a member of the scientific staff at two different national laboratories. He is author and co-author of over 150 scientific papers in refereed journals.
Professor Napolitano maintains a keen interest in science education in general, and in particular physics education at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. He has published a textbook, co-authored with Adrian Melissinos, on Experiments in Modern Physics. Prior to his work on Modern Quantum Mechanics,Second Edition, he has taught both graduate and upper-level undergraduate courses in Quantum Mechanics, as well as an advanced graduate course in Quantum Field Theory.
This best-selling classic provides a graduate-level, non-historical, modern introduction of quantum mechanical concepts. The author, J. J. Sakurai, was a renowned theorist in particle theory. This revision by Jim Napolitano retains the original material and adds topics that extend the text’s usefulness into the 21st century. The introduction of new material, and modification of existing material, appears in a way that better prepares the student for the next course in quantum field theory. You will still find such classic developments as neutron interferometer experiments, Feynman path integrals, correlation measurements, and Bell’s inequality. The style and treatment of topics is now more consistent across chapters.
The Second Edition has been updated for currency and consistency across all topics and has been checked for the right amount of mathematical rigor.
之前听到的对sakurai的评论 一是数学相对严谨,一是notation十分糟糕。 目前刚读了一章 数学确实是不错的,至少每次出现无穷的时候,都区分了可数无穷和不可数无穷。 Notation也确实是糟糕的,有a撇撇点乘a撇撇撇这种东西的存在.... 但是这本书最出彩的还是它的物理concept ...
評分这是一本非常优秀的量子力学教科书,深度上正好属于高等量子力学范畴,习题非常丰富、精巧。 如书中“推荐”所说,这本书是在教大家“以量子力学的方式思考”。一开始从斯特恩-格拉赫实验和自旋物理量出发,非常富有现代气息。在这里,sakurai高屋建瓴,先通过S-G实验向我们宣...

評分前三章太过惊艳,二次阅读量子力学的最佳体验。行文思路十分“物理”,与经典力学密不可分。太美了。区别于一般教材的大纲设计,这书从斯特恩-盖拉赫实验讲起,类比于光极化提出SG实验的波函数表示。然后引入狄拉克符号,通过设立行之有效的规则,继而对一系列SG实验进行了量子...

櫻井老濕的作品
评分嗯 寫法比較新穎 一氣嗬成讀完較為過癮
评分讀過最棒的量子力學教材!!!其與A.Zee的‘Quantum Field Theory in a nutshell’和G.D. Mahan的'Many-Particle Physics'成為我案頭讀得最多也最開心的三本書!!!
评分嗯 寫法比較新穎 一氣嗬成讀完較為過癮
评分Chapters by Sakurai (1-3, maybe 4) are excellent while Napolitano's edited version is mostly terrible: 7-page and still incomplete errata, and many vague derivations and explanations. Some updates on experiment results are useful, though.
