Title | Niels Bohr and quantum atom: The Bohr Model of Atomic Structure 1913 -1925 |
Author(s) | Helge Kragh |
Publication | Oxford, Oxford University Press, 2012. |
Description | vi, 410p. |
Abstract Note | he theory of atomic structure proposed by the young Danish physicist Niels Bohr in 1913 marked the true beginning of modern atomic and quantum physics. This is the first book that focuses in detail on the origin and development of this remarkable theory. It offers a comprehensive account of Bohr's ideas and the way they were modified by other physicists. By following the development and applications of the theory, it brings new insight into Bohr's peculiar way of thinking; what Einstein once called his 'musicality' and 'unique instinct and tact'. Contrary to most other accounts of the Bohr atom, the book presents it in a broader perspective, which includes the reception among other scientists, popular expositions of the theory, and the objections raised against it by scientists of a more conservative inclination. Moreover, it discusses the theory as Bohr originally conceived it, namely, as an ambitious attempt to understand the structure of atoms as well as molecules: the chemical aspects of the theory are given much attention. The book covers the successes as well as the failures of Bohr's theory, arguing that the latter were no less important in the process that led Bohr to abandon the original model and Heisenberg to propose a new 'quantum mechanics'. By discussing the theory in its entirety-following it from its birth in 1913, through its adolescence round 1918, to its decline in 1924-it becomes possible to understand its development and use it as an example of the dynamics of scientific theories. |

Title | Quantum physics Vol. 2: From Time-Dependent Dynamics to Many-Body Physics and Quantum Chaos |
Author(s) | Vladimir Zelevinsky |
Publication | Weinheim, WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co, KGaA, 2011. |
Description | xiv, 566p. |
Series | (Physics Textbook) |
Abstract Note | This two-volume set can be naturally divided into two semester courses, and contains a full modern graduate course in quantum physics. The idea is to teach graduate students how to practically use quantum physics and theory, presenting the fundamental knowledge, and gradually moving on to applications, including atomic, nuclear and solid state physics, as well as modern subfields, such as quantum chaos and quantum entanglement. The book starts with basic quantum problems, which do not require full quantum formalism but allow the student to gain the necessary experience and elements of quantum thinking. Only then does the fundamental Schrödinger equation appear. The author has included topics that are not usually covered in standard textbooks and has written the book in such a way that every topic contains varying layers of difficulty, so that the instructor can decide where to stop. Although supplementary sources are not required, "Further reading" is given for each chapter, including references to scientific journals and publications, and a glossary is also provided.
Problems and solutions are integrated throughout the text.

Title | Group theory for the standard model of particle physics and beyond |
Author(s) | Ken J. Barnes |
Publication | Boca Raton, CRC Press, 2010. |
Description | xiii, 241p. |
Series | (Series in High Energy Physics, Cosmology and Gravitation) |
Abstract Note | Based on the authorâs well-established courses, Group Theory for the Standard Model of Particle Physics and Beyond explores the use of symmetries through descriptions of the techniques of Lie groups and Lie algebras. The text develops the models, theoretical framework, and mathematical tools to understand these symmetries.
After linking symmetries with conservation laws, the book works through the mathematics of angular momentum and extends operators and functions of classical mechanics to quantum mechanics. It then covers the mathematical framework for special relativity and the internal symmetries of the standard model of elementary particle physics. In the chapter on Noetherâs theorem, the author explains how Lagrangian formalism provides a natural framework for the quantum mechanical interpretation of symmetry principles. He then examines electromagnetic, weak, and strong interactions; spontaneous symmetry breaking; the elusive Higgs boson; and supersymmetry. He also introduces new techniques based on extending spaceâtime into dimensions described by anticommuting coordinates.
Designed for graduate and advanced undergraduate students in physics, this text provides succinct yet complete coverage of the group theory of the symmetries of the standard model of elementary particle physics. It will help students understand current knowledge about the standard model as well as the physics that potentially lies beyond the standard model. |
