Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Like New. First Edition. A firm and square hardback with sharp corners and strong joints, just showing a few very minor cosmetic rubs. Hence a non-text page has a small 'damaged' stamp. Despite such this book is actually in nearly new condition and appears unread. Thus the contents are crisp, fresh and tight; no pen-marks. Now offered for sale at a very sensible price.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Have you ever wondered why the language of modern physics centres on geometry Or how quantum operators and Dirac brackets work What a convolution really is What tensors are all about Or what field theory and lagrangians are, and why gravity is described as curvature This book takes you on a tour of the main ideas forming the language of modern mathematical physics. Here you will meet novel approaches to concepts such as determinants and geometry, wave function evolution, statistics, signal processing, and three-dimensional rotations. You'll see how the accelerated frames of special relativity tell us about gravity. On the journey, you'll discover how tensor notation relates to vector calculus, how differential geometry is built on intuitive concepts, and how variational calculus leads to field theory. You will meet quantum measurement theory, along with Green functions and the art of complex integration, and finally general relativity and cosmology.The book takes a fresh approach to tensor analysis built solely on the metric and vectors, with no need for one-forms. This gives a much more geometrical and intuitive insight into vector and tensor calculus, together with general relativity, than do traditional, more abstract methods.Don Koks is a physicist at the Defence Science and Technology Organisation in Adelaide, Australia.His doctorate in quantum cosmology was obtained from the Department of Physics and Mathematical Physics at Adelaide University.Prior work at the University of Auckland specialised in applied accelerator physics, along with pure and applied mathematics.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Statistical mechanics: the bane of many a physics student, and traditionally viewed as a long parade of ensembles, partition functions, and partial derivatives. But the subject needn't be arcane. When pared back to its underlying concepts and built from the ground up, statistical mechanics takes on a charm of its own, and sheds light on all manner of physical phenomena.This book presents a straightforward introduction to the key concepts in statistical mechanics, following the popular style of the author's highly successful textbook 'Explorations in Mathematical Physics'. Offering a clear, conceptual approach to the subject matter, the book presents a treatment that is mathematically complete, while remaining very accessible to undergraduates.It commences by asking: why does an ink drop spread out in a bathtub of water This showcases the importance of counting configurations, which leads naturally to ideas of microstates, energy,entropy, thermodynamics, and physical chemistry. With this foundation, the Boltzmann distribution writes itself in its fullest form, and this opens the door to the Maxwell distribution and related areas of thermal conductivity and viscosity. Quantum ideas then appear: bosons via Einstein's and Debye's theories of heat capacity, and fermions via electrical conduction and low-temperature heat capacity of metals. The text ends with a detailed derivation of blackbody radiation, and uses this to discuss the greenhouse effect, lasers, and cosmology.Suitable for use with core undergraduate courses in statistical mechanics and thermodynamics, this book concentrates on using solid mathematics, while avoiding cumbersome notation. All the necessary mathematical steps are included in the body of the text and in the worked examples. Reviews of Explorations in Mathematical Physics byDon Koks, 2006'With enjoyable and sometimes surprising excursions along the way, the journey provides a fresh look at many familiar topics, as it takes us from basic linear mathematics to general relativity. look forward to having your geometric intuition nourished and expanded by the author's intelligent commentaries.' (Eugen Merzbacher, University of North Carolina)'. an interesting supplement to standard texts for teaching mathematical methods in physics, as it will add alternative views that could serve as additional material.' (S. Marcelja, Australian Journal of Physics) '. a tour through the main ideas forming the language of modern mathematical physics .it is a difficult task for the author to decide what is a good balance between the topics and their presentation, but in this case it has been achieved. .for those physicists who would like to be exposed to clear motivation and careful explanation of the basics of the present-day apparatus of mathematical physics.' (Ivailo Mladenov,Mathematical Reviews).
