This quantum mechanics track will utilize Barton Zwiebach's ***[Mastering Quantum Mechanics](https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262046138/mastering-quantum-mechanics/)***, with optional supplementation from his lecture series which are freely available online on YouTube or **[MIT OpenCourseWare](https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/8-04-quantum-physics-i-spring-2016/)**. We will be starting off in Section II, *Theory*.

Some experience in quantum mechanics is expected, but new attendees may feel free to catch up as we go along. For reference, many of us recently finished watching Allan Adams' ***[Quantum Physics I](https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/8-04-quantum-physics-i-spring-2013/)*** lecture series.

**If you have just found this event** and are worried that you're too far behind, don't worry! Our meetups are expressly structured to encourage and invite people to join us at any point and at any level of prior knowledge, as long as you've had at least some exposure to calculus and basic physics in the past. You are definitely welcome here!

We also maintain a live chat server for staying in touch between meetups. Ask us for a link.

This event is one of the many other collaborative study tracks in our *Physics With Friends* community. Check out **[all of our other events](https://www.meetup.com/physicswithfriends/events/)** to find additional physics topics that you might want to study together!

Please note that the Mastering Quantum Mechanics meetup series is a highly mathematical meetup for everyone who is serious about learning the advanced branches of math and physics that one needs to master in order to deeply understand the equations and applications of QM. It is not a general discussion group for popular physics topics or sci-fi tangents. For casual physics chat, please attend our regular **"Discuss Physics and Make Friends"** event, held every third Wednesday of the month.
