Feynman Simplified gives mere mortals access to the fabled Feynman Lectures on Physics.
Quantum mechanics is rarely taught well in introductory physics courses, largely because this challenging subject was not well taught to many of today’s instructors. Few had the opportunity to learn quantum mechanics from some who understood it profoundly; almost none learned it from one of its creators. Here more than anywhere else, Feynman excels. Here more than anywhere else, Feynman Simplified can help you learn from the very best, but at a humane pace.
Feynman Simplified: 3A covers the final third of Volume 3 of The Feynman Lectures on Physics. The topics we explore include:
Quantum Behavior of Elementary Particles
Angular Momentum & Rotations of Any Spin
Electron Atomic States & The Periodic Table
Philosophy of Wave Functions & Probability
Macroscopic QM: Superconductivity
Entanglement, Schrödinger’s Cat & Teleportation
EPR Paradox: QM vs. Local Realism
Alternative Interpretations of QM
