The Feynman Lectures on Physics: The Complete Audio Collection: v. 2

These are the audio recordings of the Caltech lectures from which Richard Feynman's textbook, Lectures on Physics, were produced. Volume 2 makes up a course in Advanced Quantum Mechanics and includes chapters on symmetry in physical laws, identical particles, symmetry and conservation laws, the hydrogen atom and the periodic table, and the Schroedinger equation in a classical context, including a seminar on superconductivity.

Richard P. Feynman was raised in Far Rockaway, New York, and received his Ph.D. from Princeton. He held professorships at both Cornell and the California Institute of Technology. In 1965 he received the Nobel Prize for his work on quantum electrodynamics. He died in 1988.
