Supplementary Notes and Material


   pdf version of Clebsch-Gordon coefficients etc. from the particle data group
   pdf version of my notes on using Fourier transforms to solve the driven harmonic oscillator. This gives a concrete example of much of the complex analysis needed in quantum mechanics.
   pdf version of my notes on expanding a plane wave in spherical Bessel functions.
   pdf version of my problems with solutions on the Lippmann-Schwinger equation.
   pdf version of my notes on defining the scattering matrix.
