Quantum Effects in Matterm

• wave-particle duality
• Heisenberg uncertainty principle
• identical particles and Pauli exclusion principle
• worked example: the quantum structure of atoms
  • Bohr model: standing de Broglie waves
  • discrete allowed states: discrete levels seen in spectraspectra of atoms
  • filling states

Quantum Effects in Stellar Matter

• thermal de Broglie wavelength and the quantum concentration
• quantum ideal gasses: the Fermi gas
• Fermi energy and degeneracy
