Description
Every action produces an equal and opposite reaction; If a thing is moving, it will keep on moving: but how and why? By introducing the fifth positive dimension of universe, the Energy, it is explained how this Action–Reaction mechanism works. Whenever mass or momentum increases, the space matrix contracts proportionally in increasing number of dimensions of Space–Time, thus generating all the forces progressively and carving the universe. •...

La física cuántica es uno de los mayores logros de la ciencia del siglo XX. Lejos de la mística o el esoterismo, esta teoría que nació para poder explicar el comportamiento de la luz ha sido comprobada una y otra vez en algunos de los experimentos más bellos de las ciencias naturales. Sin las ideas de la cuántica no habría computadoras, reproductores de DVD, transistores o aparatos para medir qué le pasa a nuestro cerebro cuando está pensando.

Description
This graduate-level text is based on a course in advanced quantum mechanics, taught many times at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. Topics include propagator methods, scattering theory, charged particle interactions, alternate approximate methods, and Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations. Problems appear in the flow of the discussion, rather than at the end of chapters.

Description
Written by a renowned professor of physics, this introductory text is geared toward graduate students taking a year-long course in quantum mechanics in which the third quarter is devoted to relativistic wave equations and field theory. Difficult concepts are introduced gradually, and the theory is applied to physically interesting problems. After an introductory chapter on the formation of quantum mechanics, the treatment advances to examinations...

Theory of Quantum Physics provides a beginner's guide to this difficult and rarely understood area.
Quantum Physics. If you're not a scientist, then these two words fill you full of worry and anxiety. This is because Quantum Physics is not easily understood and is a mystery to most people. Quantum physics, along with the theory of relativity, is one of the two major revolutionary ideas that shook the world of physics to the core in the early 20th...

We may have lived knowing that the world around us operates in a way as if we observe them to be. This knowledge of how the universe operates, based primarily of our observations, has enabled us to predict actions and motions and allowed us to build machines and equipments that have made our lives easier and more enjoyable. The field that allowed us to do that is classical physics. The world, however, is advancing and our knowledge of how things are...

Physicists lament that no meaningful progress has been made for many years in our understanding of the fundamental forces of the universe.
Einstein thought that the answers would be found in an understanding of the nature of light.
Feynman said of the double-slit experiment ".......if we could understand what is going on in this deceptively simple experiment, we would penetrate to the heart of quantum theory - and perhaps all its puzzles would dissolve."Both...
