Find Free Ebooks on Physics: Quantum Mechanics by J.J. Sakurai

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

This discussion centers on locating free ebooks on quantum mechanics, specifically J.J. Sakurai's work. Participants clarify that Sakurai's book is copyrighted and not available for free legally. They suggest using resources like arXiv.org and Google for searching other physics texts, while also providing links to MIT's Quantum Physics lecture notes and other educational resources. The conversation emphasizes the importance of respecting copyright laws when seeking academic materials.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of copyright laws related to academic texts
  • Familiarity with online academic resources such as arXiv.org
  • Basic knowledge of search engines and how to effectively use them
  • Awareness of alternative educational resources like MIT OpenCourseWare
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore arXiv.org for freely available academic papers and resources
  • Research MIT OpenCourseWare for Quantum Physics lecture notes
  • Investigate Google Scholar for academic texts and papers
  • Learn about copyright laws and their implications for academic resources
USEFUL FOR

Students of physics, educators seeking teaching materials, and anyone interested in accessing legal academic resources for quantum mechanics and related subjects.

I found best source so far, on MIT website:

Quantum Physics I - http://web.mit.edu/8.04/www/lecnotes.html
Quantum Physics II - http://web.mit.edu/8.05/handout.html
Statistical Mechanics - http://web.mit.edu/8.333/www/lectures/index.html
