Condensed matter physics (liquid state & solid state physics); Atomic & molecular physics

Series: IOP ebooks

This second edition course text introduces the fundamental quantum physics of atoms and molecules. With revised and extended content, this book is the first volume in a series of three aiming to present a broad coverage of atomic, molecular, solid-state and statistical physics. Divided into three parts, the first provides a historical perspective leading to the contemporary view of atomic and molecular physics, outlining the principles of non-relativistic quantum mechanics. The second covers the physical description of atoms and their interaction with radiation, whilst the third deals with molecular physics. The book’s pedagogical features include conceptual layout sections that define the goals of each chapter, a simplified but rigorous mathematical apparatus, and a thorough discussion of approximations used to develop the adopted physical models.

Key Features

Fills a gap for a self-contained undergraduate textbook in atomic and molecular physics Is tailored for a one-semester course Focuses on a selected set of topics, whilst also providing substantial, in-depth coverage of the subject Emphasises phenomenology rather than mathematics/formalism Uses various pedagogical features, including end-of-chapter exercises with solutions
