Introduction to Quantum Theory and Atomic Structure (Oxford Chemistry Primers, 37)

Oxford University Press, 1996

This book illuminates the basic concepts of quantum chemistry, and emphasizes atomic structure but not molecular applications. The author starts with a survey of the basic ideas and problems of wave/particle duality, the nature of wave function, and its statistical interpretation. He then discusses some important applications of Schrodinger's...

The Martians of Science: Five Physicists Who Changed the Twentieth Century

Oxford University Press, 2006

If science has the equivalent of a Bloomsbury group, it is the five men born at the turn of the twentieth century in Budapest: Theodore von Karman, Leo Szilard, Eugene Wigner, John von Neumann, and Edward Teller. From Hungary to Germany to the United States, they remained friends and continued to work together and influence each other throughout...

Quantum Mechanics

Benjamin Cummings, 2003

The principles of quantum mechanics were formulated by many people during a short period of time at the beginning of the twentieth century. Max Planck wrote down his formula for the spectrum of blackbody radiation and introduced the constant that now bears his name in 1900. By 1924, through the work of Einstein, Rutherford and Bohr, Schrodinger and...

Observing the Sun with Coronado Telescopes (Patrick Moore's Practical Astronomy Series)

Springer, 2007

The Sun provides amateur astronomers with one of the few opportunities for daytime astronomy.

In order to see the major features of our nearest star, special telescopes that have a very narrow visible bandwidth are essential. The bandwidth has to be as narrow as 1 × 10^-10 m (1 Angstrom) and centred on the absorption line...
