Description
This book is intended for first year physics graduate students who wish to learn about analytical mechanics. Lagrangians and Hamiltonians are extensively treated following chapters where particle motion, oscillations, coordinate systems, and rigid bodies are dealt with in far greater detail than in most undergraduate textbooks. Perturbation theory, relativistic mechanics, and two case studies of continuous systems are presented. Each subject is approached at progressively higher levels of abstraction. Lagrangians and Hamiltonians are first presented in an inductive way, leading up to general proofs. Hamiltonian mechanics is expressed in Cartan’s notation not too early; there is a self-contained account of the traditional formulationNumerous problems with detailed solutions are provided. Graduate students studying for the qualifying examination will find them very useful. .
User’s Reviews
Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:
⭐In general, the book is good but it is some brief with some esential topics. However, there are a lot of useful exercises where the reader can understand clearly the physical meaning of the Classical Mechanics. I used this book when I took the course and I could see and understand how the Hamilton-Jacobi Theory and the Canonical Transformations work in nature with simple examples and easy to solve.
