While the two previous books entitled Introduction to Modern
Physics: Theoretical Foundations and Advanced Modern Physics:
Theoretical Foundations exposed the reader to the foundations and
frontiers of today's physics, the goal of this third volume is to
cover in some detail several topics omitted in the essentially
linear progression of the first two.This book is divided into three
parts. Part 1 is on quantum mechanics. Analytic solutions to the
Schroedinger equation are developed for some basic systems. The
analysis is then formalized, concluding with a set of postulates
for the theory. Part 2 is on applications of quantum mechanics:
approximation methods for bound states, scattering theory,
time-dependent perturbation theory, and electromagnetic radiation
and quantum electrodynamics. Part 3 covers some selected topics in
relativistic quantum field theory: discrete symmetries, the
Heisenberg picture, and the Feynman rules for quantum
chromodynamics.The three volumes in this series taken together
provide a clear, logical, self-contained, and comprehensive base
from which the very best students can learn modern physics. When
finished, readers should have an elementary working knowledge in
the principal areas of theoretical physics of the twentieth
century.
