Quantum Mechanics e-2, Bransden & Joachain

In summary, the person is looking for a solutions manual or a source of worked examples for undergraduate quantum mechanics, as their current textbook does not have many examples or solutions. They are recommended Schaum's Outline of Quantum Mechanics by Zaarur, Constantinescu & Magyari's exercise book, Fluegge's Practical Quantum Mechanics, or D.J. Griffiths' textbook as potential sources of solved examples and easier introduction to the subject.

My intro QM class is currently using this text, but I find that there is not very many worked examples of problems, and there are no solutions for the chapter questions in the back.

My class assignments are not based out of the book, so I was wondering if anyone knew of a solutions manual I could find somewhere online, or if not a good source of worked examples for undergraduate quantum mechanics.

Thanks in advance.

David.

For a book with solved examples I would point you to Schaum's Outline of Quantum Mechanics (Zaarur, IIRC, is one of the authors). Other fully solved exercise books are those of Constantinescu & Magyari and Fluegge's <Practical Quantum Mechanics>. But these 2 books contain more information than you probably need right now.

As for a textbook, many people think of D.J. Griffiths' text of being very good as an introduction with little mathematical prerequisites.
