Zusammenfassung: Introduction to Special Relativity -- Michelson–Morley Experiment and Lorentz Transformations -- Relativistic Kinematics -- Introduction to Quantum Physics.-The Photoelectric Effect -- Bohr’s Quantum Theory -- De Broglie’s Interpretation -- Schrodinger’s Equation -- The Potential Barrier -- Quantum Wells and Energy Levels -- The Harmonic Oscillator -- Periodic Potentials and Band Spectra -- The Schrodinger Equation in a Central Potential -- Introduction to the Statistical Theory of Matter -- Thermal Equilibrium by Gibbs’ Method -- The Pressure and the Equation of State.- A Three Level System -- The Grand Canonical Ensemble and the Perfect Quantum Gas.Zusammenfassung: This is the third edition of a well-received textbook on modern physics theory. This book provides an elementary but rigorous and self-contained presentation of the simplest theoretical framework that will meet the needs of undergraduate students. In addition, a number of examples of relevant applications and an appropriate list of solved problems are provided.Apart from a substantial extension of the proposed problems, the new edition provides more detailed discussion on Lorentz transformations and their group properties, a deeper treatment of quantum mechanics in a central potential, and a closer comparison of statistical mechanics in classical and in quantum physics. The first part of the book is devoted to special relativity, with a particular focus on space-time relativity and relativistic kinematics. The second part deals with Schrödinger's formulation of quantum mechanics. The presentation concerns mainly one-dimensional problems, but some three-dimensional examples are discussed in detail. The third part addresses the application of Gibbs’ statistical methods to quantum systems and in particular to Bose and Fermi gases.PPN: PPN: 1657870693Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-SXP | ZDB-2-PHA
