Ferromagnetism and Magnetic Order. Superconductors. First Principles Calculation of Electronic Properties. Appendix A: The Variational Method with an Arbitrary Parameter - the Hydrogen Atom. Appendix B: The Hydrogen Atom and the Periodic Table.ReviewsO'Reilly's book purposefully guides the reader along a carefully chosen itinerary based on the physics of a quantum mechanical 'particle-in-a-box.' The author cleverly casts progressively complex topics in this formthe organizing principle makes the book easy to use for a course or for self-study. The problems that O'Reilly provides are sound pedagogical exercises directly tied to the text. The review and reinforcement of basic quantum mechanical results and their relation to the properties of real systems are undoubtedly valuable for advanced undergraduate students and beginning graduate students. -Physics Today, April 2004 """O'Reilly's book purposefully guides the reader along a carefully chosen itinerary based on the physics of a quantum mechanical 'particle-in-a-box.'
