From Qubit to Qubit: A Graduate Course in Quantum Mechanics
Jeremy Levy
This textbook is drawn from notes for a two-semester graduate course in quantum mechanics. It begins with the most constrained quantum system, and recovers the rest of the subject…
Helping introductory physics students connect physics with humanities, art, social sciences, and everyday life
Brooke Rouret, Jaya Shivangani Kashyap, Jeremy Levy +1
In this article, we reflect upon our positive experiences incorporating or working on extra credit projects in algebra-based introductory physics that asked students to connect phy…
Hands-On Quantum: Teaching Core Quantum Concepts With Bloch Cubes
Jeremy Levy, Chandralekha Singh
Quantum mechanics is a notoriously abstract subject, and therefore challenging to teach at pre-college and introductory college levels. Here we introduce the Bloch Cube, a hands-on…
Teaching Quantum Formalism and Postulates to First-Year Undergraduates
Jeremy Levy, Chandralekha Singh
Traditional approaches to undergraduate-level quantum mechanics require extensive mathematical preparation, preventing most students from enrolling in a quantum mechanics course un…
