Four Lectures on Wave Mechanics: Delivered at the Royal Institution, London, on 5th, 7th, 12th, and 14th March, 1928 (Classic Reprint) - Hardcover
Synopsis
This book marks a significant turning point in understanding the nature of matter. The author introduces a groundbreaking theory called wave mechanics to replace the existing classical mechanics, which had failed to account for many phenomena related to the atom. The author explains how wave mechanics accounts for wave-particle duality, which had baffled scientists who had previously described these phenomena as either particles or waves. The author further demonstrates the successful application of wave mechanics to the exemplary problem of the hydrogen atom, with its specific quantized energy levels, and uses the theory to explain diverse phenomena, including the famous spectral patterns of atomic hydrogen. With its revolutionary approach to the behavior of matter, this book provides a new comprehensive framework for modern physics, redefining the understanding of atomic and subatomic behavior.
