What it is about

You deepen concepts of quantum mechanics beyond the nonrelativistic single-particle description: path integrals, open quantum systems, second quantization, identical particles as well as relativistic single-particle equations (Klein–Gordon, Dirac) and their applications (e.g. hydrogen spectrum). In the end you will be able to apply these formalisms, describe quantized fields and solve simple problems such as the open two-state system or the Dirac equation in a central potential.

What you will be able to do

  • Entanglement, mixed states vs. pure states define
  • Evolution equations for closed and open quantum systems formulate
  • Wavefunction for systems of bosons and fermions write
  • Klein–Gordon and Dirac equations derive and apply
  • Dirac energy spectrum for the hydrogen atom calculate
  • Formalism of second quantization understand
  • Quantize photon, Klein–Gordon and Dirac fields
  • Occupation-number representation and Fock space use
  • Decoherence and Lindblad formalism understand and apply

What the module consists of

  • VorlesungTransmission of the theory, derivations and examples; discussions are encouraged
  • ÜbungDeepening through calculation tasks in small groups; application of what was learned

Teaching method

  • Vorlesung/Tafelanschrieb/Online (Zoom)Explain the topics, derive the theory and work on examples
  • Übungen in KleingruppenDeepening understanding through calculation examples and joint discussion; preparation for the exam
