WEBIntroduction to quantum mechanics David Morin, morin@physics.harvard.edu This chapter gives a brief introduction to quantum mechanics. Quantum mechanics can be thought of roughly as the study of physics on very small length scales, although there are also certain macroscopic systems it directly applies to. The descriptor \quantum" arises
