AI Thread Summary
For those seeking resources on quantum chemistry, a recommended starting point is the Wikipedia summary on quantum chemistry. Introductory books such as Levine's "Quantum Chemistry," Atkins & Friedman's "Molecular Quantum Mechanics," and McQuarrie's "Quantum Chemistry" provide comprehensive insights and methodologies. Levine's book emphasizes wave mechanics and perturbation theory, while Atkins & Friedman offer a solid mathematical framework. McQuarrie's text is particularly useful for self-study with its detailed derivations and solved problems. These resources collectively enhance understanding of quantum physics and its applications in modern chemistry and quantum computing.

Does anybody know a good site on quantum physiks, and in particular quantum chemistry (modern chemistry) and quantum computers ?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
First, there's a Wikipedia summary:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_chemistry

And then there are these introductory books:

Levine — "Quantum Chemistry" (6th ed., 2008)

Clear, step-by-step development of wave mechanics, operators, perturbation theory, variational methods...

Atkins & Friedman — "Molecular Quantum Mechanics" (6th ed., 2011)

Good physical insight and a clear mathematical treatment

McQuarrie — "Quantum Chemistry" (1997)

With detailed derivations and many solved problems great for self-study.
 

Thread 'What major topics are there in arithmetic and what order to learn them?'

TL;DR Summary: What topics to cover to safely say I know arithmetic ? I am learning arithmetic from Indian NCERT textbook. Currently I have finished addition ,substraction of 2 digit numbers and divisions, multiplication of 1 digit numbers. I am moving pretty slowly. Can someone tell me what topics to cover first to build a framework and then go on in detail. I want to learn fast. It has taken me a year now learning arithmetic. I want to speed up. Thanks for the help in advance. (I also...

Thread 'Help with my plan to get into research about bound states'

Hi community My aim is to get into research about atoms, specifically, I want to do experimental research that explores questions like: 1. Why do Gallium/Mercury have low melting points 2. Why are there so many exceptions and inconsistencies when it comes to explaining molecular structures / reaction mechanisms in inorganic and organic chemistry 3. Experimental research about fundamental Quantum Mechanics, such as the one being followed by Hiroshima university that proved that observing...

Thread 'What is computational physics and what is the best way or method to learn computational physics?'

guys i am currently studying in computer science engineering [1st yr]. i was intrested in physics when i was in high school. due to some circumstances i chose computer science engineering degree. so i want to incoporate computer science engineering with physics and i came across computational physics. i am intrested studying it but i dont know where to start. can you guys reccomend me some yt channels or some free courses or some other way to learn the computational physics.
