Description
An Introduction to Advanced Quantum Physics presents important concepts from classical mechanics, electricity and magnetism, statistical physics, and quantum physics brought together to discuss the interaction of radiation and matter, selection rules, symmetries and conservation laws, scattering, relativistic quantum mechanics, apparent paradoxes, elementary quantum field theory, electromagnetic and weak interactions, and much more. This book consists of two parts:Part 1 comprises the material suitable for a second course in quantum physics and covers:Electromagnetic Radiation and MatterScatteringSymmetries and Conservation LawsRelativistic Quantum PhysicsSpecial TopicsPart 2 presents elementary quantum field theory and discusses:Second Quantization of Spin 1/2 and Spin 1 FieldsCovariant Perturbation Theory and ApplicationsQuantum ElectrodynamicsEach chapter concludes with problems to challenge the students’ understanding of the material.This text is intended for graduate and ambitious undergraduate students in physics, material sciences, and related disciplines.

Editorial Reviews: Review “The material is intended for undergraduates who are planning to take up the study of elementary particle physics or condensed matter. The problem section given at the end of each chapter is a useful addition for a better understanding of the subject.” (Zentralblatt MATH, 2011) From the Inside Flap An Introduction to Advanced Quantum Physics presents important concepts from classical mechanics, electricity and magnetism, statistical physics, and quantum physics brought together to discuss the interaction of radiation and matter, selection rules, symmetries and conservation laws, scattering, relativistic quantum mechanics, apparent paradoxes, elementary quantum field theory, electromagnetic and weak interactions, and much more.

About the Author Professor Hans Paar has been on the faculty of the University of California San Diego since 1986. He has taught Quantum Physics in all four quarters it is offered at the undergraduate level and has developed and taught the third and fourth quarter of this course (which corresponds to the content of the book) almost each of those 22 years. He has been vice-chair education in UCSD’s Physics Department from 1992-1999 and again from 2008-present.Professor Paar is an experimental particle-astrophysicist and has spent nearly 20 years in experimental high energy physics (particle physics by another name) and nearly three years in Cosmology (the Big-Bang and the particle physics of that era). I am an author on 938 publications. Read more
Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:
⭐The errors start from the preface itself where the author confuses east and west coast metric. he also uses the dreaded old ict convention (not really an error but this is not a convention anybody uses in modern days). There are numerous other errors and things that are deeply wrong. For other examples of errors, go to physicsforums and search for “Advanced Quantum Physics by Paar”. I wasted my money buying this. I am posting this review to save others from doing the same.
