Title: Quantum Mechanics: Symmetries Author(s): Walter Greiner Pages: 505 Publisher: Springer Publication date: 1994 Language: English Format: DJVU ISBN-10: 0387580808 ISBN-13: Description: Quantum Mechanics - Symmetries deals with a particularly appealing and successful concept in advanced quantum mechanics. After a brief introduction to symmetries in classical mechanics, the text turns to their relevance in quantum mechanics, the consequences of rotation symmetry, and the general theory of Lie groups. The isospin group, hypercharge, SU(3), and their applications are all dealt with in depth before chapters on charm, SU(4), and dynamical symmetries lead to the frontiers of research in particle physics. This unique text comprises more than 120 detailed, worked examples and problems. This second edition has been corrected and is presented in both a new attractive cover and a new format. In addition, some new examples and exercises have been included.
