商品描述

This book fills a gap in the middle ground between quantum mechanics of a single electron to the concept of a quantum field. In doing so, the book is divided into two parts; the first provides the necessary background to quantum theory extending from Planck's formulation of black body radiation to Schrodinger's equation; and the second part explores Dirac's relativistic electron to quantum fields, finishing with an description of Feynman diagrams and their meaning.

Much more than a popular account, yet not too heavy so as to be inaccessible, this book assumes no prior knowledge of quantum physics or field theory and provides the necessary foundations for readers to then progress to more advanced texts on quantum field theory. It will be of interest to undergraduate students in physics and mathematics, in addition to an interested, general audience.

 

Features:

 

 

 

 

 

  • Provides an extensive yet accessible background to the concepts
  • Contains numerous, illustrative diagrams
  • Presents in-depth explanations of difficult subjects

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書填補了單一電子的量子力學與量子場概念之間的空白。為此,本書分為兩個部分;第一部分提供了量子理論的必要背景,從普朗克的黑體輻射公式到薛丁格方程;第二部分探討了狄拉克的相對論電子到量子場,最後描述了費曼圖及其意義。

這本書不僅僅是一本流行的介紹,卻也不至於過於艱深而難以接觸,假設讀者對量子物理或場論沒有先前的知識,並提供必要的基礎,使讀者能夠進一步閱讀更高級的量子場論文本。這本書將對物理和數學的本科生以及對此主題感興趣的一般讀者具有吸引力。

特色:

- 提供廣泛而易於理解的概念背景
- 包含大量的插圖
- 對困難主題進行深入解釋
