A graduatelevel text that examines the semiclassical approach to quantum mechanicsPhysical systems have been traditionally described in terms of either classical or quantum mechanics. But in recent years, semiclassical methods have developed rapidly, providing deep physical insight and computational tools for quantum dynamics and spectroscopy. In this book, Eric Heller introduces and develops this subject, demonstrating its power with many examples.In the first half of the book, Heller covers relevant aspects of classical mechanics, building from them the semiclassical way through the semiclassical limit of the Feynman path integral. The second half of the book applies this approach to various kinds of spectroscopy, such as molecular spectroscopy and electron imaging and quantum dynamical systems with an emphasis on tunneling. Adopting a distinctly timedependent viewpoint, Heller argues for semiclassical theories from experimental and theoretical vantage points valuable to research in physics and chemistry. Featuring more than two hundred figures, the book provides a geometric, phasespace, and coordinatespace pathway to greater understanding.Filled with practical examples and applications, The Semiclassical Way to Dynamics and Spectroscopy is a comprehensive presentation of the tools necessary to successfully delve into this unique area of quantum mechanics.A comprehensive approach for using classical mechanics to do quantum mechanicsMore than two hundred figures to assist intuitionEmphasis on semiclassical Green function and wave packet perspective, as well as tunneling and spectroscopyChapters include quantum mechanics of classically chaotic systems, quantum scarring, and other modern dynamical topics
