Title
Quantum Dynamics
Learning Outcome
Compute the dynamical evolution of quantum systems and convert results between the different representations of quantum theory.
Title
Coupled Systems
Learning Outcome
Solve problems involving the coupling of independent quantum systems, including identical particles, and be able to give their quantum information content.
Title
Quantum Angular Momentum

Extend quantum theory to three dimensions using the machinery of angular momentum for systems with spherical symmetry.
Title
Spinors
Learning Outcome
Use the spinor formalism to describe physical spin and two-level systems.
