C5969: Conceptual Quantum Mechanics in Splash Fall 2017 (Nov. 11 - 12, 2017)
In this course we will introduce the key ideas and concepts in quantum mechanics using no mathematics beyond high school algebra. We will focus on three simple quantum mechanical systems, the photon in a box, the electron in a box, and Schrodinger's cat. Focus will be on the interpretation and meaning of quantum mechanics, from Copenhagen to Everett (many-worlds). We will attempt to correct several common misconceptions regarding quantum mechanics, including several regarding the role of consciousness in the theory.
