Using Quantum Mechanics and Computational Physics For Experiential Learning

Here we explore the use of quantum mechanics in our experiential learning based computational physics course at the Illinois Institute of Technology. Two examples are used. The first example is a homework problem where we have the students use Monte Carlo Integration to calculate 2 atom overlap integrals. The second example is more representative of a final project in the course. There the students rewrote the Herman-Skillman non-relativistic Hartree-Fock-Slater self-consistent field code for calculating atomic wave functions and orbital energies. The latter code has been released to the public and is available at: https://github.com/jterry94/Atomic-St... The Input Files necessary for the calculations are on the Input-Files branch at the GitHub page: https://github.com/jterry94/Atomic-St... We think that these are the types of projects that the students benefit by working through.
