Synopsis
Designed for students familiar with abstract mathematical concepts but possessing little knowledge of physics, this text focuses on generality and careful formulation rather than problem-solving. Its author, a member of the distinguished National Academy of Science, based this graduate-level text on the course he taught at Harvard University. Opening chapters on classical mechanics examine the laws of particle mechanics; generalized coordinates and differentiable manifolds; oscillations, waves, and Hilbert space; and statistical mechanics. A survey of quantum mechanics covers the old quantum theory; the quantum-mechanical substitute for phase space; quantum dynamics and the Schr dinger equation; the canonical "quantization" of a classical system; some elementary examples and original discoveries by Schr dinger and Heisenberg; generalized coordinates; linear systems and the quantization of the electromagnetic field; and quantum-statistical mechanics. The final section on group theory and quantum mechanics of the atom explores basic notions in the theory of group representations; perturbations and the group theoretical classification of eigenvalues; spherical symmetry and spin; and the n -electron atom and the Pauli exclusion principle., Designed for students familiar with abstract mathematics but not physics, this graduate-level text was written by a member of the National Academy of Science. It introduces fundamentals of classical mechanics; surveys basics of quantum mechanics; and concludes with a look at group theory and quantum mechanics of the atom. 1963 edition., This graduate-level text introduces fundamentals of classical mechanics; surveys basics of quantum mechanics; and concludes with a look at group theory and quantum mechanics of the atom. 1963 edition.

    I received my quilt & pillow shams. My items were shipped to protect them and packaged very well. The items were as described and were brand new. I am very pleased with what I purchased. I personally like the vintage look and love light weight bedding. I was pleased to buy with a reasonable price and the shipping was extremely fast. I had good communication with the seller.
