Problem sets with answers to go along with cohen-tannoudji

[bit188]

Hey!

I'm fifteen and have been self-studying physics and math for quite some time now. I'm getting further into Cohen-Tannoudji and, while I do the exercises, I worry about whether or not I'm doing them correctly.

I'd like some problem sets with answers-- online or in book format-- that would tie into my studies. Thanks!

I'm guessing it's this book your working through
Cohen-Tannoudji, Claude. Quantum Mechanics. 2 vols. Wiley, 1977. ISBN: 0471164321
(reading for http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Physics/8-05Fall-2004/CourseHome/)

I know very little about QM but googling I found this set of problems and solutions, I hope they are relevant:

Also in the thread below someone suggests "Schaums Outline Quantum Mechanics", it has over 200 solved problems.

Hope this helps.

As a fellow scientist, I understand your concern about wanting to make sure you are correctly solving the problems in Cohen-Tannoudji's book. It is always important to have a way to check your answers and ensure your understanding of the material is accurate.

One resource I would recommend is the solutions manual for Cohen-Tannoudji's book, which can often be found online or through your university's library. This will provide you with the correct answers to the problems in the book and can serve as a helpful guide for your self-study.

In addition, there are many online resources and forums where you can find additional problem sets and solutions related to Cohen-Tannoudji's book. These can be a great supplement to your studies and can also provide you with a way to check your understanding of the material.

I would also suggest reaching out to other physicists or professors for guidance and support. They may have additional resources or advice for tackling the problems in Cohen-Tannoudji's book.

Remember to always approach problem solving with a critical mindset and to double check your work. With dedication and perseverance, I am confident you will continue to make progress in your studies. Best of luck!
