    2: The Schrödinger equation

    • 2.1: The Schrödinger Wave Equation
      Beginning in the early 20th century, physicists began to acknowledge that matter--much like electromagnetic radiation--possessed wave-like behaviors. While electromagnetic radiation were well understood to obey Maxwell's Equations, matter obeyed no known equations.
    • 2.2: The Schrödinger Equation is an Eigenvalue Problem
      To every dynamical variable in quantum mechanics, there corresponds an eigenvalue equation . The eigenvalues represents the possible measured values of the operator.
    • 2.3: The Postulates of Quantum Mechanics
      There are only a small number of postulates of quantum mechanics. Upon them is built all of the conclusions of this powerful theory.
