| THE COURSE HAS AS ITS TOPICS THE FUNDAMENTALS OF QUANTUM MECHANICS. THE MAIN OBJECTIVE IS TO PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH THE CONCEPTUAL BASIS FOR DEALING WITH THE STUDY OF MODERN QUANTUM PHYSICS. KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING SKILLS 1. UNDERSTANDING OF THE FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS OF CLASSICAL MECHANICS 2. KNOWING THE CONCEPTUAL BASIS OF QUANTUM MECHANICS 3. KNOW THE MEANING OF WAVE FUNCTION, WAVE/PARTICLE DUALISM, ENTANGLEMENT AND PRINCIPLES OF QUANTUM MECHANICS. ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING 1. ABILITY TO CALCULATE THE WAVE FUNCTION IN QUANTUM MECHANICS IN DIFFERENT CONTEXTS 2. ABILITY TO APPLY DIFFERENT APPROACHES TO QUANTUM MECHANICS 3.

| Prerequisites | |
|---|---|
| IT IS ASSUMED THAT THE STUDENT KNOWS THE PRINCIPLES OF CLASSICAL MECHANICS AND ELEMENTARY ASPECTS OF QUANTUM MECHANICS. |
| Contents | |
|---|---|
| 1. DE BROGLIE HYPOTHESIS AND ITS DEEPER MEANING 2. THE POSTULATES OF QUANTUM MECHANICS 3. ON THE REALITY AND COMPLETENESS OF QUANTUM MECHANICS 4. EPR PARADOX AND ITS RELEVANCE 5. LOCALITY AND REALISM OF QUANTUM MECHANICS 6. NO-GO THEOREMS 7. TOWARDS A MODERN QUANTUM MECHANICS: QUANTUM COMPUTING AND QUANTUM TECHNOLOGIES |
| Teaching Methods | |
|---|---|
| THE COURSE CONSISTS OF LECTURES (10 HOURS). THE LECTURES WILL ENABLE THE STUDENT TO ACQUIRE KNOWLEDGE OF THE CONCEPTUAL FOUNDATIONS OF QUANTUM MECHANICS. |
| Verification of learning | |
|---|---|
| THE EXAMINATION CONSISTS OF AN ORAL TEST. THE ORAL TEST LASTING ABOUT 30 MINUTES WILL INVOLVE THE DISCUSSION OF A PAPER AND IS DESIGNED TO TEST THE STUDENT'S ABILITY TO DEVELOP THE TOPIC OF THE PAPER INDEPENDENTLY. THE ORAL PROOF WILL TEST THEORETICAL KNOWLEDGE, WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO THE CONCEPTUAL BASIS OF QUANTUM MECHANICS. THE EVALUATION OF THE ORAL TEST DEPENDS ON THE DEGREE OF THOROUGHNESS OF THE PAPER AND THE STUDENT'S ABILITY TO EFFECTIVELY PRESENT THE CONTENTS AND CRITICALLY DISCUSS THE ARGUMENTS ILLUSTRATED. THE SCORING OF THE ORAL EXAMINATION IS, IN ADDITION, AIMED AT ASSESSING THE STUDENT'S THEORETICAL DEPTH. THE MINIMUM GRADE IN THE ORAL TEST INVOLVES KNOWLEDGE OF QUANTUM MECHANICAL CONCEPTS (WAVE FUNCTION, WAVE-PARTICLE DUALISM, ENTANGLEMENT). THE MAXIMUM ASSESSMENT IS ACHIEVED WHEN THE STUDENT DEMONSTRATES THE ABILITY TO CORRECTLY ILLUSTRATE AND DISCUSS THE CONCEPT OF WAVE FUNCTION, WAVE/PARTICLE DUALISM, ENTANGLEMENT AND THEIR CONNECTION WITH THE PRINCIPLES OF QUANTUM MECHANICS. |
