100 Years of Quantum Mechanics Literature – A new baseline

A qualitative survey on the Quantum Mechanics (QM) literature space was performed. The survey presents published works since 1921. Several criteria were introduced to refine a literature list with focus on QM textbooks only. The list contains 398 items as of 2023-Mar-15. This list may present the most extensive cross-publisher listing of QM literature as of today. The result equals a small database in its own sense. The seasoned reader and researcher can extend their library or knowledge about authors and textbooks. Method, data sources, analysis and limitations of the survey are briefly discussed.
