Introduction to Quantum Information Science

Quantum mechanics, at least at some instrumental level, can be viewed as a modification of the probability theory. We replace positive numbers (probabilities) with complex numbers z (probability amplitudes) such that the squares of their absolute values, |z|2, are interpreted as probabilities. The rules for combining amplitudes are very reminiscent of the rules for combining probabilities. z1 z2

Introduction to Theoretical Surface Science

Recent years have seen a tremendous progress in the microscopic theoretical treatment of surfaces and processes on surfaces. While some decades ago a phenomenological thermodynamic approach was dominant, a variety of surface properties can now be described from first principles, i.e. without invoking any empirical parameters. Consequently, the field of theoretical surface science is no longer l...
