Introduction Chapter 3: Charles Darwin The Origins of Doubt and the Rebirth of Praise ... Age of Science God and Science The Hypertext Edition The first edition of God and Science was published in 1986 by John Knox Press. It will appear here in a hypertext format, revised and expanded to encompass more recent developments in both science and theology. In addition, the hypertext edition will be enhanced by graphics, illustrations, and links to websites that will give the reader additional resources to deepen understanding of major themes, names and topics mentioned in the book. As one reviewer wrote about the book, "I could envision myself trying to design a course (around it). ... I think the book has high educational value. I enjoyed reading it to the point that I almost couldn't stop once I had started." (Harry W. Ellis Professor of Physics). I believe that the Internet enhances both the educational value and the enjoyment that may be found in this work. If you'd like to be informed of additional chapters as they appear at this site, or would like to join in conversation both online and in realtime about the topics covered within these pages, please use the Mail Drop below to indicate your interest.

145. Quantum Mechanics: 1-Dimensional Particle States Applet This java applet is a quantum mechanics simulation that shows the behavior of a single particle in bound states in one dimension. http://www.falstad.com/qm1d/

Sorry, you need a Java-enabled browser to see the simulation. At the top of the applet you will see a graph of the potential, along with horizontal lines showing the energy levels. By default it is an infinite square well (zero everywhere inside, infinite at the edges). Below that you will see the probability distribution of the particle's position, oscillating back and forth in a combination of two states. Below the particle's position you will see a graph of its momentum. At the bottom of the screen is a set of phasors showing the magnitude and phase of all the possible states. To view a state, move the mouse over its energy level on the potential graph. To select a single state, click on it. You may also select a single state by picking one of the phasors at the bottom and double-clicking on it. Or, you may click on the phasor and drag its value to modify the magnitude and phase. In this way, you can create a combination of states. You may select a different potential from the Setup menu at the top right. Full Directions.

Editorial Staff quick search Search Physics World Previous Physics World December 2000 Next Quantum mechanics with single atoms and photons Feature: December 2000 Some 100 years after the birth of quantum mechanics, physicists are still learning more about the interactions between light and matter. One of the driving forces behind the development of quantum mechanics at the start of the last century was the need to understand why atoms only emit light at certain wavelengths. Shortly afterwards quantum mechanics was applied to molecules and then to solids. Moving in the other direction, it was also applied to predict the properties of fundamental particles, notably the electron. Quantum mechanics has been remarkably successful in all these realms. Indeed, quantum electrodynamics - the theory of how light and matter interact - is the most powerful and accurate theory in all of physics. But even more remarkable is the fact that quantum theory still continues to fascinate researchers. It might be thought that 100 years after it was developed, there would be little that we did not know about quantum mechanics. Nothing could be further from the truth. Interest in quantum mechanics - both theoretical and experimental - is probably greater now that it ever has been. In this article we will concentrate on just one aspect of the ongoing love affair between physicists and quantum mechanics - experiments in which single atoms are trapped inside a small box or cavity containing, on average, just one photon. Atomic physicists are now able to observe the motion of a single atom in real time with high spatial and temporal resolution, to reconstruct its trajectory and to explore hitherto unknown light forces. The realization of such "single-photon optical tweezers" is opening up new possibilities in the control of the internal and external quantum states of atoms, the cooling of molecules and quantum information processing.

Quantum Physics, abstract quant-ph/0004090 From: Richard MacKenzie [ view email ] Date: Mon, 24 Apr 2000 13:58:03 GMT (56kb) Path Integral Methods and Applications Authors: Richard MacKenzie Comments: 55 pages, 23 figures. Lectures given at Rencontres du Vietnam: VIth Vietnam School of Physics, Vung Tau, Vietnam, 27 December 1999 - 8 January 2000 Report-no: UdeM-GPP-TH-00-71 These lectures are intended as an introduction to the technique of path integrals and their applications in physics. The audience is mainly first-year graduate students, and it is assumed that the reader has a good foundation in quantum mechanics. No prior exposure to path integrals is assumed, however. The path integral is a formulation of quantum mechanics equivalent to the standard formulations, offering a new way of looking at the subject which is, arguably, more intuitive than the usual approaches. Applications of path integrals are as vast as those of quantum mechanics itself, including the quantum mechanics of a single particle, statistical mechanics, condensed matter physics and quantum field theory. After an introduction including a very brief historical overview of the subject, we derive a path integral expression for the propagator in quantum mechanics, including the free particle and harmonic oscillator as examples. We then discuss a variety of applications, including path integrals in multiply-connected spaces, Euclidean path integrals and statistical mechanics, perturbation theory in quantum mechanics and in quantum field theory, and instantons via path integrals.

Notes for a lecture given at the Golden Jubilee Workshop on Foundations of Quantum Theory, Tata Institute, Bombay, September 9-12, 1996 Journal-ref: Pramana 51 (1998) 549-565 I list several strong requirements for what I would consider a sensible interpretation of quantum mechanics and I discuss two simple theorems. One, as far as I know, is new; the other was only noted a few years ago. Both have important implications for such a sensible interpretation. My talk will not clear everything up; indeed, you may conclude that it has not cleared anything up. But I hope it will provide a different perspective from which to view some old and vexing puzzles (or, if you believe nothing needs to be cleared up, some ancient verities.)

Conference Home Scientific Program Schedule of Talks Students ... MCTP Inaugural Conference of the Michigan Center for Theoretical Physics May 21-25, 2001 University of Michigan, Ann Arbor Two theories revolutionized the 20th century view of space and time: Einstein's General Theory of Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. Their union has spawned elementary particle theories with extra spacetime dimensions, the inflationary model of big-bang cosmology, dark matter in the universe, radiation from quantum black holes and the fuzzy spacetime geometry of superstrings and M-theory. These developments, derived from the 19th century mathematics of Riemannian geometry and Lie groups, have in their turn inspired new directions in the pure mathematics of topology and knot theory. In view of the mission of the Michigan Center for Theoretical Physics to provide a venue for interdisciplinary studies in the mathematical sciences, this Inaugural Conference will bring together Astronomers, Cosmologists, Particle Physicists and Mathematicians to share their different perspectives on the 21st century view of spacetime. Invited speakers include: John Bahcall (IAS) Jacob Bekenstein (Jerusalem) Stanley Deser (Brandeis) Paul Frampton (UNC, Chapel Hill)
