Mathematical Analysis Physical Problems by Wallace Philip (24 results)

Paperback. Condition: Good. Intended for the advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate student, this lucid work links classical and modern physics through common techniques and concepts and acquaints the reader with a variety of mathematical tools physicists use to describe and comprehend the physical universe. For the physicist, mathematics is a language, or shorthand, for constructing workable models (necessarily approximate and incomplete) of aspects of physical reality. The present text, by a noted professor of physics at McGill University, Montreal, deals in an exceptionally well-organized way with some of the crucial mathematical tools used to construct such models. Contents include: I: The Vibrating String; II. Linear Vector Spaces; III. The Potential Equation; IV: Fourier and Laplace Transforms and Their Applications; V. Propagation and Scattering of Waves; VI. Problems of Diffusion and Attenuation; VII. Probability and Stochastic Processes; VIII. Fundamental Principles of Quantum Mechanics; IX. Some Soluble Problems of Quantum Mechanics; X. Quantum Mechanics of Many-body Problems. A special helpful feature of this volume is a Prelude to each chapter, which outlines the topics with which the chapter deals. In addition to providing a guide to the organization of its contents, it indicates the mathematical background assumed and calls attention to those methods and concepts which have an application in different physical problems. Relevant test problems are interspersed throughout the text to test the student's grasp of the material, while brief bibliographies at the chapter ends suggest further reading. Ideal as a primary or supplementary text, Mathematical Analysis of Physical Problems will reward any reader seeking a firmer grasp of the mathematical procedures by which physicists unlock the secrets of the universe.…

Condition: Buone. inglese Condizioni dell'esterno: Discrete con difetti, strappi Condizioni dell'interno: Discrete con Difetti, note nel testo.

hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…
