This new edition of the unrivalled textbook introduces concepts such as the Quantum theory of scattering by a potential, special and general cases of adding Angular momenta, time-independent and time-dependent perturbation theory, and systems of identical particles.
His research was focused on optical pumping, statistical Mechanics of Quantum gases, musical acoustics and the foundations of Quantum mechanics..
His first assignment was with the University of Paris VI before he was appointed to the CNRS, the French National Research Center.
Franck Lalo is a researcher at the Kastler-Brossel laboratory of the Ecole Normale Sup rieure in Paris.
He was engaged in research at the Laboratory of Theoretical Physics and High Energy where his focus was on strong interactions physics and statistical mechanics.
Bernard Diu was Professor at the Denis Diderot University (Paris VII).
Phillips, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for his research on laser cooling and trapping of neutral atoms.
In 1997, Claude Cohen-Tannoudji, together with Steven Chu and William D.
His main research interests were optical pumping, Quantum optics and atom-photon interactions.
In 1973 he became Professor of atomic and molecular physics at the Coll ge des France.

The textbook retains its typical style also in the new edition: it explains the fundamental concepts in chapters which are elaborated in accompanying complements that provide more detailed discussions, examples and applications.
The entire book has been revised to take into account new developments in Quantum Mechanics curricula.
