Book Synopsis The Dirac Equation by : Bernd Thaller
Download or read book The Dirac Equation written by Bernd Thaller and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since its invention in 1929 the Dirac equation has played a fundamental role in various areas of modern physics and mathematics. Its applications are so widespread that a description of all aspects cannot be done with sufficient depth within a single volume. In this book the emphasis is on the role of the Dirac equation in the relativistic quantum mechanics of spin-1/2 particles. We cover the range from the description of a single free particle to the external field problem in quantum electrodynamics. Relativistic quantum mechanics is the historical origin of the Dirac equation and has become a fixed part of the education of theoretical physicists. There are some famous textbooks covering this area. Since the appearance of these standard texts many books (both physical and mathematical) on the non relativistic Schrodinger equation have been published, but only very few on the Dirac equation. I wrote this book because I felt that a modern, comprehensive presentation of Dirac's electron theory satisfying some basic requirements of mathematical rigor was still missing.
Book Synopsis The Dirac Equation and its Solutions by : Vladislav G. Bagrov
Download or read book The Dirac Equation and its Solutions written by Vladislav G. Bagrov and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2014-08-20 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dirac equation is of fundamental importance for relativistic quantum mechanics and quantum electrodynamics. In relativistic quantum mechanics, the Dirac equation is referred to as one-particle wave equation of motion for electron in an external electromagnetic field. In quantum electrodynamics, exact solutions of this equation are needed to treat the interaction between the electron and the external field exactly. In this monograph, all propagators of a particle, i.e., the various Green's functions, are constructed in a certain way by using exact solutions of the Dirac equation.

Book Synopsis The Supersymmetric Dirac Equation by : Allen Hirshfeld
Download or read book The Supersymmetric Dirac Equation written by Allen Hirshfeld and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2012 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The solution of the Dirac equation for an electron in a Coulomb field is systematically treated here by utilizing new insights provided by supersymmetry. It is shown that each of the concepts has its analogue in the non-relativistic case. Indeed, the non-relativistic case is developed first, in order to introduce the new concepts in a familiar context. The symmetry of the non-relativistic model is already present in the classical limit, so the classical Kepler problem is first discussed in order to bring out the role played by the Laplace vector, one of the central concepts of the whole book. Analysis of the concept of eccentricity of the orbits turns out to be essential to understanding the relation of the classical and quantum mechanical models. The opportunity is taken to relive the great moments of physics: From Kepler's discovery of the laws of motion of the planets the development is traced through the Dirac equation up to modern advances, which bring the concepts of supersymmetry to bear on the derivation of the solutions.
Book Synopsis The Dirac Equation in Curved Spacetime by : Peter Collas
Download or read book The Dirac Equation in Curved Spacetime written by Peter Collas and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-03-21 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains and develops the Dirac equation in the context of general relativistic quantum mechanics in a range of spacetime dimensions. It clarifies the subject by carefully pointing out the various conventions used and explaining how they are related to each other. The prerequisites are familiarity with general relativity and an exposure to the Dirac equation at the level of special relativistic quantum mechanics, but a review of this latter topic is given in the first chapter as a reference and framework for the physical interpretations that follow. Worked examples and exercises with solutions are provided. Appendices include reviews of topics used in the body of the text. This book should benefit researchers and graduate students in general relativity and in condensed matter.
Book Synopsis Nonlinear Dirac Equation: Spectral Stability of Solitary Waves by : Nabile Boussaïd
Download or read book Nonlinear Dirac Equation: Spectral Stability of Solitary Waves written by Nabile Boussaïd and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2019-11-21 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph gives a comprehensive treatment of spectral (linear) stability of weakly relativistic solitary waves in the nonlinear Dirac equation. It turns out that the instability is not an intrinsic property of the Dirac equation that is only resolved in the framework of the second quantization with the Dirac sea hypothesis. Whereas general results about the Dirac-Maxwell and similar equations are not yet available, we can consider the Dirac equation with scalar self-interaction, the model first introduced in 1938. In this book we show that in particular cases solitary waves in this model may be spectrally stable (no linear instability). This result is the first step towards proving asymptotic stability of solitary waves. The book presents the necessary overview of the functional analysis, spectral theory, and the existence and linear stability of solitary waves of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation. It also presents the necessary tools such as the limiting absorption principle and the Carleman estimates in the form applicable to the Dirac operator, and proves the general form of the Dirac-Pauli theorem. All of these results are used to prove the spectral stability of weakly relativistic solitary wave solutions of the nonlinear Dirac equation.

Book Synopsis Visual Quantum Mechanics by : Bernd Thaller
Download or read book Visual Quantum Mechanics written by Bernd Thaller and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-05-08 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Visual Quantum Mechanics" uses the computer-generated animations found on the accompanying material on Springer Extras to introduce, motivate, and illustrate the concepts explained in the book. While there are other books on the market that use Mathematica or Maple to teach quantum mechanics, this book differs in that the text describes the mathematical and physical ideas of quantum mechanics in the conventional manner. There is no special emphasis on computational physics or requirement that the reader know a symbolic computation package. Despite the presentation of rather advanced topics, the book requires only calculus, making complicated results more comprehensible via visualization. The material on Springer Extras provides easy access to more than 300 digital movies, animated illustrations, and interactive pictures. This book along with its extra online materials forms a complete introductory course on spinless particles in one and two dimensions.

Book Synopsis Topological Insulators by : Shun-Qing Shen
Download or read book Topological Insulators written by Shun-Qing Shen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Topological insulators are insulating in the bulk, but process metallic states present around its boundary owing to the topological origin of the band structure. The metallic edge or surface states are immune to weak disorder or impurities, and robust against the deformation of the system geometry. This book, the first of its kind on topological insulators, presents a unified description of topological insulators from one to three dimensions based on the modified Dirac equation. A series of solutions of the bound states near the boundary are derived, and the existing conditions of these solutions are described. Topological invariants and their applications to a variety of systems from one-dimensional polyacetalene, to two-dimensional quantum spin Hall effect and p-wave superconductors, and three-dimensional topological insulators and superconductors or superfluids are introduced, helping readers to better understand this fascinating new field. This book is intended for researchers and graduate students working in the field of topological insulators and related areas. Shun-Qing Shen is a Professor at the Department of Physics, the University of Hong Kong, China.

Book Synopsis Handbook of Relativistic Quantum Chemistry by : Wenjian Liu
Download or read book Handbook of Relativistic Quantum Chemistry written by Wenjian Liu and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook covers new methodological developments and applications of relativistic quantum chemistry. It also pays attention to the foundation of relativistic quantum mechanics and addresses a number of fundamental issues that have not been covered by any book. For instance, what is the appropriate relativistic many-electron Hamiltonian? How to do relativistic explicit/local correlation? How to formulate relativistic properties? How to combine double-group and time-reversal symmetries? How to do QED calculations for molecules? Just to name a few. This book aims to establish the big picture of relativistic molecular quantum mechanics, ranging from pedagogic introduction for uninitiated readers, advanced methodologies and efficient algorithms for experts, to possible future perspectives, such that the reader knows when/how to apply/develop the methodologies. This self-contained two-volume book can be regarded as a supplement to the three-volume "Handbook of Computational Chemistry", which contains no relativity at all. It is to be composed of 6 sections with different chapters (will be further expanded), each of which is to be written by the most active experts, who will be invited upon approval of this proposal.
Book Synopsis Relativistic Quantum Mechanics of Leptons and Fields by : W.T. Grandy
Download or read book Relativistic Quantum Mechanics of Leptons and Fields written by W.T. Grandy and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1990-12-31 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The material contained in this work concerns relativistic quantum mechanics, and as such pertains to classical fields. On the one hand it is meant to serve as a text on the subject, a desire stemming from the author's fruitless searches for an adequate, up-to-date reference when lecturing on these topics. At times the supplementary material was found to exceed by far that in the assigned text. On the other hand, there is some flavor of a monograph to what follows, most particularly in the later chapters, for a major goal is to demonstrate just how far we can advance our understanding of the behavior of stable particles and their interactions without introducing quantized fields. Those wishing to describe the world in this way may view the result as a point of departure, despite the fact that their wish remains unfulfilled. Confirmed quantum-field theorists, however, will doubtless view it as a summary of just why they feel compelled to quantize the fields. Approximately half the book is devoted to the single-particle Dirac equation and its solutions. A great deal of detail is provided in this respect, and the discus sion is reasonably comprehensive. The Dirac equation is extraordinarily important in its own right, particularly as a basis for quantum electrodynamics (QED), and is thus worthy of extensive study.
