Theoretical Physics Compact III
0 - Default Title
Description
Highlights:
Theoretical derivations are linked with characteristic examples, their solutions, typical applications, and clearly illustrated in diagrams. The required mathematics is derived in a physical context and explained transparently.
Contents:
Principles of Classical Physics – Limits of Classical Physics – Beginnings of Quantum Theory: Matter Waves – Quantum Theory of a Particle – Operators and Expectation Values – Measurements and Probabilities – Particles under the Influence of External Forces – Fundamentals of Scattering Theory – The Hilbert Space – Operators in Hilbert Space – The Time Evolution Operator – Particle Number Representation for Fermions – Particle Number Representation for Bosons – Quantization of the Radiation Field: Photons – Formal Scattering Theory – The Hartree-Fock Approximation – Superconductivity in the BCS Model
Target Audience:
This book is especially suitable for Bachelor's students in their second or third year.
Prerequisites:
Mathematical prerequisites include knowledge of analysis, linear algebra, and complex function theory.
The Author:
Wolfgang Cassing is a retired Professor of Theoretical Physics at the Justus-Liebig-University Gießen. His expertise lies in phase space dynamics of classical and quantum many-body systems, which also features in his scholarly book "Transport Theories for Strongly-Interacting Systems". This textbook series Theoretical Physics Compact also includes Classical Mechanics, Electrodynamics, and Quantum Statistics and Thermodynamics.
