Basic Theoretical Physics: A Concise Overview P43. This concise treatment embraces, in four parts, all the main aspects of theoretical physics (I . Mechanics and Basic Relativity, II. Electrodynamics and Aspects of Optics, III. Non-relativistic Quantum Mechanics, IV. Thermodynamics and Statistical Physics). It summarizes the material that every graduate student, physicist working in industry, or physics teacher should master during his or her degree course. It thus serves both as an excellent revision and preparation tool, and as a convenient reference source, covering the whole of theoretical physics. It may also be successfully employed to deepen its readers’ insight and. | Index 439 moment 133 representation of magnetic bodies 140 fields 132 Dirac s abstract bra-ket formalism 215 s abstract quantum mechanics 210 s delta function 112 133 138 214 s equivalent spin operator Heitler- London theory 273 s relativistic quantum theory not described 251 representation interaction 245 Dirichlet s problem 127 128 discrete-line radiation 179 dispersion phenomena 346 relation u k 179 399 402 double pendulum 85 87 droplet radius critical value 425 Drude theory of the electric resistance 164 dual space 78 duality wave-particle 208 Dulong-Petit s law 402 dumbbell approximation for a dipole 132 140 dynamic conserved quantities 50 dynamic susceptibility 410 Dyson series interaction representation 247 Dyson s time-ordering operator 247 E mc2 101 Eotvos 8 eavesdropping spy quantum cryptography 289 effective -charge representation versus polarization representation 137 charges . not compensated 138 currents 149 electric charges 146 mass 286 currents 146 Ehrenfest n-th order phase transitions 403 Ehrenfest theorem 245 247 eigenfrequencies normal frequencies 63 eigenzeit proper time 55 59 eikonal function 186 approximation from Schrodinger to Hamilton 187 approximation from waves to rays 186 187 Einstein 174 183 184 203 s light-quantum hypothesis photons 208 209 220 s principle of maximal proper time 55 60 s principle of relativity 58 s summation convention 176 s annus mirabilis 1905 208 s contributions to quantum mechanics 4 s equivalence principle 96 s general theory of relativity 60 96 s special theory of relativity 58 s theory of gravity 33 and de Haas 151 hidden variables 279 Einstein Podolski and Rosen 279 290 291 295 Einstein Podolski and Rosen s acceptability postulates reality locality retardation 280 electric dipole radiation 173 octupole radiation 173 polarization P 133 134 139 electro-mechanical equivalent of heat 306 electromagnetic waves 163 waves planar spherical 166 energy theorem 163 electromotive force 153 electron equilibrium in .
