This concise and accessible book provides a detailed introduction
to the fundamental principles of atomic physics at an undergraduate
level. Concepts are explained in an intuitive way and the book
assumes only a basic knowledge of quantum mechanics and
electromagnetism. With a compact format specifically designed for
students, the first part of the book covers the key principles of
the subject, including the quantum theory of the hydrogen atom,
radiative transitions, the shell model of multi-electron atoms,
spin-orbit coupling, and the effects of external fields. The second
part provides an introduction to the four key applications of
atomic physics: lasers, cold atoms, solid-state spectroscopy and
astrophysics. This highly pedagogical text includes worked examples
and end of chapter problems to allow students to test their
knowledge, as well as numerous diagrams of key concepts, making it
perfect for undergraduate students looking for a succinct primer on
the concepts and applications of atomic physics.
