What is Quantum Mechanics about?
Quantum mechanics: from classical analytical mechanics to quantum mechanics, simulation, foundations & engineering Quantum mechanics is a fundamental subject in physics, often considered to be one of the most conceptually challenging topics. In many undergraduate courses, it is assumed that students are unfamiliar with the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations of classical mechanics or the role of probability in Liouville's theorem (analytical mechanics). As a result, quantum physics is typically introduced using heuristic arguments, which can lead to surprising and counterintuitive concepts, and sometimes even incorrect interpretations. This book takes an alternative approach by leveraging classical analytical mechanics to facilitate a natural transition to quantum physics. By introducing and utilising classical mechanics, we provide a solid foundation for understanding quantum phenomena. We discuss important examples within this context and explore both exact and computational methods. Additionally, this book delves into quantum measurement and the transition from the quantum to the classical realm. It also introduces the emerging field of Quantum Systems Engineering, which foc
