1. Atomic structure: discovery of the radioactivity, discovery of the electron, discovery of the atomic nucleus. 2. Old quantum theory: planetary model of the atom, Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom, Mendeleev periodic system. 3. Atomic spectra: emission and absorption optical spectra of the atom, emission and absorption X-ray atomic spectra, spectral analysis. 4. Fundamentals of nuclear physics: radioactive decay, nuclear reactions, nuclear fission and fusion. 5. The wave-particle dualism: the de Broglie's hypothesis, Young's double slit experiment with classical particles, waves and microobjects. 6. The postulates and the mathematical apparatuss of quantum mechanics: wave function, priciple of superposition, expansion in eigenfunctions,Hermite operators representing physical quantities, measurements in microworld. 7. The Schrödinger equation: the time development of the state of a microobject, general Schrödinger equation, the stationary Schrödinger equation. 8. Simple (square) potential models: energy quantization, tunel effect, resonance capture. 9. Applications: autoemission, thermoemission, contact potential, radioactivity 10. Approximation methods: discontinuous potentials, perturbation and variation methods. 11. The hydrogen atom: energy spectrum, geometrical visualisation of the charge density. 12. Spin: spin hypothesis, spin effects in the hydrogen atom. 13.
