Basics of Quantum Computation : Part 1
de.arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0407064 [HTML, PDF, Postscript, GZIP]
|
|
The aim of this textbook is to bridge in regard of quantum computation what proves to be a considerable threshold even to the usual science trained readership between the level of science popularization, and on the other hand, the presently available more encyclopedic textbooks. In this respect the present textbook is aimed to be a short, simple, rigorous and direct introduction, addressing itself only to quantum computation proper. more info

Motion Mountain : The Physics Textbook
www.motionmountain.net [HTML/Javascript, PDF]
|
|
|
This site publishes a free physics textbook that introduces thermodynamics, special and general relativity, electrodynamics, quantum theory, quantum field theory and modern unification attempts. The Motion Mountain project aims to produce a simple, vivid and up-to-date introduction into modern physics, with emphasis on the fundaments of motion. `Simple` means that concepts are stressed more than formalism; `vivid` means that the reader is permanently challenged; `up-to-date` means that unification is presented in detail. more info

|
|
|
Quantiki is currently an experimental project hosted by the University of Cambridge`s Centre for Quantum Computation. The intention is to provide an encyclopedia for quantum information that can be edited by the community (a wiki). Quantiki provides lists of groups and people working on quantum information theory as well as resources for the quantum information community which include events, jobs, the history of the field and links to quantum blogs. Tutorial material is included as well, such as introductions to key concepts in quantum theory, or a handbook of quantum information which contains an encyclopaedia of everything on quantum information. Quantiki incorporates information of the former qubit.org service. more info

Quantum Computation
de.arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/9812037 [HTML, PDF, Postscript, TAR, GZIP]
|
|
|
This review is about to tell the story of theoretical quantum computation. It begins with background on theoretical computer science, Turing machines and Boolean circuits. In light of these models, quantum computers are defined, and the issue of universal quantum gates are discussed. Quantum algorithms are explained. Much attention is devoted to understanding what the origins of the quantum computational power are, and what the limits of this power are. The possible implications of quantum computation on fundamental physical questions, such as the transition from quantum to classical physics are discussed. more info

Quantum Physics Made Relatively Simple
bethe.cornell.edu [HTML]
|
|
|
In 1999, legendary theoretical physicist Hans Bethe delivered three lectures on quantum theory. Given by Professor Bethe at age 93, the lectures are presented here as QuickTime videos synchronized with slides of his talking points and archival material. The lectures hold appeal for experts and non-experts alike. more info

Quantum Physics Online
www.quantum-physics.polytechnique.fr [HTML/Javascript, Java-Applet]
|
|
|
This collection of animations and simulations of quantum mechanical systems covers the breadth of topics in introductory courses and makes difficult concepts visible. The illustrations of quantum systems at the site promote visual and conceptual learning, important due to the non-intuitive nature of the subject. This site goes beyond standard materials, giving example modern applications and advanced topical links. more info
