Richard Feynman, winner of the Nobel Prize in physics, thrived on outrageous adventures. Here he recounts, in his inimitable voice, trading ideas on atomic physics with Einstein and Bohr and ideas on
This book has evolved from lectures devoted to applications of the Wentzel - Kramers – Brillouin- (WKB or quasi-classical) approximation and of the method of 1/N -expansion for solving various problem
These articles and speeches by the Nobel Prize?winning physicist date from 1934 to 1958. Rather than expositions on quantum physics, the papers are philosophical in nature, exploring the relevance of
The aim of this book is to present highly accurate and extensive theoretical Atomic data and to give a survey of selected calculational methods for atomic physics, used to obtain these data. The book
This book is a data book for atomic and plasma physicists. Numerical data are given for atoms, atomic processes and atomic systems along with basic concepts and simple models for atomic physics of thi
This problems and solutions manual is intended as a companion to an earlier textbook, Moern Atomic and Nuclear Physies (Revised Edition) (World Scientific, 2010). This manual presents solutions to man
The book is the culmination of the authors’ many years of teaching and research in atomic physics, nuclear and particle physics, and modern physics. It is also a crystallization of their intense passi

The Nobel Laureate's brilliant exposition of the kinetic theory of gases, elementary particles, the nuclear atom, wave-corpuscles, atomic structure and spectral lines, electron spin and Pauli's princ
Primarily intending this volume to serve as a textbook for an undergraduate course in atomic physics, Foot (physics, U. of Oxford, UK) covers core material and a few more advanced topics illustrating
This text will thoroughly update the existing literature on atomic physics. Intended to accompany an advanced undergraduate course in atomic physics, the book will lead the students up to the latest
This established text contains an advanced presentation of quantum mechanics adapted to the requirements of modern atomic physics. The third edition extends the successful second edition with a detail
