Computational Physics Simulation of Classical and Quantum Systems

Computational Physics Simulation of Classical and Quantum Systems / by Philipp O.J. Scherer.

This book encapsulates the coverage for a two-semester course in computational physics. The first part introduces the basic numerical methods while omitting mathematical proofs but demonstrating the algorithms by way of numerous computer experiments. The second part specializes in simulation of clas...
