Originally written as a course for students of science education, the book addresses all those science students and others who are looking for a reasonably simple, fresh and modern introduction to the field. The basic principles of quantum mechanics are presented in the first volume. This second volume discusses applications and extensions to more complex problems. In addition to topics traditionally dealt with in quantum mechanics texts, such as symmetries or many-body problems, here also issues of current interest such as entanglement, Bell's inequalities, decoherence and various aspects of quantum information are treated in detail. Furthermore, questions of the basis of quantum mechanics and epistemological issues are discussed explicitly; these are relevant e.g. to the realism debate. A chapter on the interpretations of quantum mechanics completes this volume. The necessary mathematical tools are introduced step by step; in the appendix, the most relevant mathematics is compiled in compact form. More advanced topics such as the Lenz vector, Hardy's experiment and Shor's algorithm are treated in more detail in the appendix. As an essential aid to learning and teaching, 130 exercises are included, most of them with their solutions. 410 0$aUndergraduate Lecture Notes in Physics,$x2192-4791 606 $aQuantum theory 606 $aQuantum field theory 606 $aString models 606 $aMathematical physics 606 $aQuantum computers 606 $aSpintronics 606 $aQuantum Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19080 606 $aQuantum Field Theories, String Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19048 606 $aMathematical Applications in the Physical Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M13120 606 $aQuantum Information Technology, Spintronics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31070 615 0$aQuantum theory. 615 0$aQuantum field theory. 615 0$aString models. 615 0$aMathematical physics. 615 0$aQuantum computers. 615 0$aSpintronics. 615 14$aQuantum Physics. 615 24$aQuantum Field Theories, String Theory. 615 24$aMathematical Applications in the Physical Sciences. 615 24$aQuantum Information Technology, Spintronics. 676 $a530.12 700 $aPade$b Jochen$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0791276 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300377303321 996 $aQuantum Mechanics for Pedestrians. 2, Applications and Extensions$91867639 997 $aUNINA
