What are some resources that you would suggest for a first course in graduate quantum mechanics? This includes textbooks, online courses such as MIT OCW(includes homework/exams), and online lecture notes?

After binge watching Steins;Gate, it has had me thinking about black holes. In the show it mentioned the idea of microscopic black holes(CERN). That being said, if matter and energy have an "equivalence", and if the Schwarzschild radius depends on mass, then would it be possible to confine a...

Summary: Physics Graphics Simulation I am interested in modeling physics using graphics simulations. I took a python course with CS majors and one of the assignments was to simulate a planet orbiting a star. That being said, I was wondering if anyone knew of any good resources that I could...

I am an undergraduate doing research on QC/QI. My current topic to learn is continuous-time quantum walks, but first I must learn the random quantum walk. That being said, I was wondering if someone could simply explain what a random quantum walk is and then explain how they could be useful with...

Homework Statement input state is |1>(tensorproduct)(2|0>+|1>). Homework Equations Find the probability of the outcomes being 0 and 1 measuring the second qubit. And then what the outcome states of each are. The Attempt at a Solution I have attempted this problem and for the probability of...

Thank you for the response, my research professor gave me a physical copy of the textbook that you referenced. I have a pretty good understanding of quantum formalism. I believe I can derive a proper formula in order to write a code for a numerical method for measurement procedure given an...

I was wondering how to measure the first or even the second qubit in a quantum computing system after for example a Hadamard Gate is applied to the system of these qubits: A|00>+B|01>+C|10>+D|11>? A mathematical and intuitive explanation would be nice, I am a undergraduate sophomore student...
