Topics in modern physics : theoretical foundations John Dirk Walecka - World Scientific Low Price Edition Indian Ed. - Singapore : World Scientific, ©2013 - xviii, 480 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm
Quantum Mechanics Solutions to the Schrodinger Equation Formal Developments Applications of Quantum Mechanics Approximation Methods for Bound States Scattering Theory Time-Dependent Perturbation Theory Electromagnetic Radiation and Quantum Electrodynamics Relativistic Quantum Field Theory Discrete Symmetries Heisenberg Picture Feynman Rules for QCD Problems and Appendices Problems
This book is divided into three parts. Part 1 is on quantum mechanics. Analytic solutions to the Schrödinger 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
