About the Book:

``Elements of Quantum Mechanics`` targets advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students, research scholars who need a clearer understanding of basics and methods, and teachers and faculty at colleges, unversities and research institutions.

The first six chapter can be used at the undergraduate college level. The following five chapters are appropriate for a second one-semester course, while the last four may be used for comparatively advanced students. The chapter on selected topics is meant to set the tone for summer projects, etc. Quantization of the Electro-Magnetic field as needed for radiative transitions in atomic, molecular and unclear physics in simply explained. Field theoretic methods for many-body problems often not treated adequately in introductory text books is introduced in the last chapter.

About the Author:

Dr. Binayak Dutta Roy, Ph.D., Princeton University, New Jersey, U.S.A., is an avid teacher and researcher. He published more than a 100 research papers in internationally reputed journals in the fields of Elementary Particle Theory, Nuclear Physics, General Physics, Chemical Physics, Quantum Optics and Theoretical Biophysics. He has taught over a period of 45 years, courses in Quantum Mechanics, Mathematical Methods, Classical Mechanics, Electricity & Magnetism, Thermodynamics and Quantum Field Theory & Elementary Pariticle Physics in The graduate, postgraduate and undergraduate levels in various institutions.

He was Faculty for 33 years at Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics. After reitrement, he was asked to continue there for some years and then at the Variable Energy Cyclotron Centre and S.N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences where he continues to teach Quantum Mechanics. For many years he taught at the Calcutta University. He has gained the reputation of a legendary teacher and has much to offer through his book.

Overseas, he was a Visiting Professor at the Stevens Institute of Technology, New Jersey, U.S.A. for two one year stints, one year visit to McGill University, Montreal, Canada and a year and a half at the University of Central Florida, Orlando, U.S.A. He also made several short visits to the Institute for Theoretical and Experimental Physics at Moscow, Russia, International Centre for Theoretical Physics at Trieste in Italy, etc.
