Aim
Quantum Mechanics is basic for all modern physics. This course gives a deeper understanding that all physicists need both experimentalists and theoreticians. Both theory and applications are treated in the course. Applications are choosen in close relations to other courses.

Knowledge and understanding
For a passing grade the student must

- know how to apply the theory on real problems

- know how to use se quantum mechanics in some applications

Skills and abilities
For a passing grade the student must

- know methods to determine if a Q M or classical treatment is needed

Judgement and approach
For a passing grade the student must
