What is the main purpose for this course?

Quantum mechanics I is a branch of physics which deals with physical phenomena at nano-scopic

scales where the action is on the order of the Planck constant. It departs from classical mechanics

primarily at the quantum realm of atomic and subatomic length scales. Quantum mechanics

provides a mathematical description of much of the dual particle-like and wave-like behavior and

interactions of energy and matter. Quantum mechanics provides a substantially useful framework

for many features of the modern periodic table of elements including the behavior of atoms during

chemical bonding and has played a significant role in the development of many modern

technologies.

In the context of quantum mechanics, the wave–particle duality of energy and matter and

the uncertainty principle provide a unified view of the behavior of photons, electrons, and other

atomic-scale objects.

The course outline as:

Demonstrate an understanding of how quantum states are described by wave functions;

solve the Schrödinger equation and describe the properties of a particle in simple potential

wells;

Solve one-dimensional problems involving transmission, reflection and tunnelling of

quantum probability amplitudes;

Demonstrate an understanding of the significance of operators and eigenvalue problems in

quantum mechanics;

Demonstrate an understanding of angular momentum in quantum mechanics;

Demonstrate an understanding of how quantum mechanics can be used to describe the

hydrogen and helium atoms.

Understand Schrödinger equation in three dimensions, The fundamental postulates of

quantum mechanics

Study and solve functions and eigenvalues, Ladder operators and dynamical variables,

Schrödinger equation in three dimensions in Cartesian coordinates, Schrödinger

equation in in three dimension curvilinear coordinate system

Study the central potentials and understand Hydrogen atom.

2. Briefly describe any plans for developing and improving the course that are being implemented. (e.g.

increased use of IT or web based reference material, changes in content as a result of new research in

the field)

39. Update the content periodically.

40. Using new references.

41. Using web references.

42. increase use of IT

43. increase use of video material

44. exploring the possibility of introducing students to a specialized software

45. Increased use of power-point and projector in class

2 Other Strategies for Evaluation of Teaching by the Program/Department Instructor

A statistical regular review and analysis of the students’ achievement in the department.

Prepare a questionnaire which should be filled by the students at the end of the term.

The questionnaire should be after that analyzed and carefully studied. 3 Processes for Improvement of Teaching

Provide training and workshop opportunities for the teaching staff to improve their teaching

strategies.

Form committees to follow up progress and work on improvement.

Provide opportunities to improve academic courses and research through conferences.

Provide the teaching staff members with all the references and electronic resources.

Updating through more reading books and articles related to the course

Improve relations between instructor and students.

4. Processes for Verifying Standards of Student Achievement (e.g. check marking by an independent

member teaching staff of a sample of student work, periodic exchange and remarking of tests or a sample

of assignments with staff at another institution)

Efficiency of course will be reflected on the results of the class, which reviewed by members of the teaching staff in

addition to other duties such as discussing ideas and ways of teaching and learning. The course should be developed

periodically to ensure that it contains the latest developments in the field of study. Development could be put as an

objective in the report of the course to be achieved each semester.

5 Describe the planning arrangements for periodically reviewing course effectiveness and planning for

improvement.

Student’s feedback on the quality of the course.

Consulting other faculty members or collaborators in overseas universities for their views on the

method of quality of improvement

Check other universities web sites to compare our lectures with them

Compare the syllabus with the syllabus of standard universities.

Form a specialized committee from the department to review the progress of teaching and update

the resources

Consult distinguished students and discuss with them positive and negative points in Lectures.

B Objectives

34. What is the main purpose for this course?

The use of computers in physics has grown enormously in the twentieth and twenty-first

centuries, to the point where computers play a central role in virtually every new physics

discovery. From particle physics and astrophysics to quantum computing and biophysics,

calculations on computers have become one of the most indispensable tools of scientists today.

This course will give participants an introduction to the solution of physics problems using

computers. Assuming no previous computer programming experience, the course will

introduce the basic ideas and programming skills of computational physics and students will

develop their own computer software to solve problems in quantum physics,

electromagnetism, biophysics, mechanics, chaos, nonlinear dynamics, and other areas.
