Description
An introduction to the quantum view of nature with applications to atomic and molecular structure. Methods to describe the quantum world are introduced, used to describe the electronic structure of simple model systems, and applied to the hydrogen atom, many-electron atoms, simple diatomic molecules, and polyatomic molecules. The laboratory portion of the course consists of applications enriching and illustrating the lecture material, and incorporates the use of computers in predicting experimental results.
