Description

Quantum theory and the theoretical basis and symmetry arguments of molecular spectroscopy are central themes. Topics include: rotational, vibrational and electronic spectra, quantum restrictions, physical property determination, symmetry and group theoretical operations, eigenfucntions and operator notation, application of the Schrodinger wave equation, approximation methods in complex systems, the vector model of the atom, and spectroscopic state designation. Simulation, modeling and advanced graphical software are employed.
