Relativistic Quantum Mechanics : With Applications in Condensed Matter and Atomic Physics
Editorial Reviews
Review
'The book is very readable and could easily be used as background reading to an advanced relativistic quantum mechanics undergraduate course as well as the postgraduate audience for which it is intended ... Any researcher desiring to pursue a career in relativistic condensed matter will find it invaluable.' Martin Long, The Times Higher Education Supplement
'... a sparkling presentation of the more traditional aspects and quite numerous well-presented novel topics, especially within condensed matter and atomic physics... an outstanding and careful book... good value and highly recommended for any graduate student entering relativistic quantum mechanics but also researchers in the field of condensed matter and atomic physics'. C. Keitel, Contemporary Physics
Book Description
This graduate text introduces relativistic quantum theory, emphasizing important applications in condensed matter physics. Relativistic quantum theory is the unification of Einstein's theory of relativity and the quantum mechanics of Bohr, Schrödinger and Heisenberg. Beginning with basic theory, the book then describes essential topics. It includes many worked examples and exercises as well as an extensive reference list. This clear account of a crucial topic will be valuable to graduates and researchers working in condensed matter physics and quantum physics.
