Part II

Bound and Undetermined: Handling Particles in Bound States

In this part . . .

This part is where you get the lowdown on one of quantum physics’ favorite topics: solving the energy levels and wave functions for particles trapped in various bound states.

Quantum physics is expert at handling those kinds of situations.
