Produktbeschreibung

Essential Advanced Physics (EAP) is a series comprising four parts: Classical Mechanics, Classical Electrodynamics, Quantum Mechanics and Statistical Mechanics. Each part consists of two volumes, Lecture notes and Problems with solutions, further supplemented by an additional collection of test problems and solutions available to qualifying university instructors.

Written for graduate and advanced undergraduate students, the goal of this series is to provide readers with a knowledge base necessary for professional work in physics, be that theoretical or experimental, fundamental or applied research. From the formal point of view, it satisfies typical PhD basic course requirements at major universities. Selected parts of the series may also be valuable for graduate students and researchers in allied disciplines, including astronomy, chemistry, materials science, and mechanical, electrical, computer and electronic engineering.

The EAP series is focused on the development of problem-solving skills. The following features distinguish it from other graduate-level textbooks:

• Concise lecture notes (~250 pages per semester)
• Emphasis on simple explanations of the main concepts, ideas and phenomena of physics
• Sets of exercise problems, with detailed model solutions in separate companion volumes
• Extensive cross-referencing between the volumes, united by common style and notation
• Additional sets of test problems, freely available to qualifying faculty

This volume, Classical Electrodynamics: Lecture notes is intended to be the basis for a two-semester graduate-level course on electricity and magnetism, including not only the interaction and dynamics of charged point particles, but also properties of dielectric, conducting and magnetic media. The course also covers special relativity, including its kinematics and particle-dynamics aspects, and electromagnetic radiation by relativistic particles.

Autorenporträt

Konstantin K Likharev received his PhD from the Lomonosov Moscow State University, USSR, in 1969, and a habilitation degree of Doctor of Sciences from USSR's High Attestation Committee in 1979. From 1969 to 1990 Dr Likharev was a Staff Scientist of Moscow State University. In 1991 he assumed a Professorship at Stony Brook University (Distinguished Professor since 2002, John S Toll Professor since 2017). During his research career, Likharev worked in the fields of nonlinear classical and dissipative quantum dynamics, and solid-state physics and electronics, notably including superconductor electronics and nanoelectronics - most recently, with applications to neuromorphic networks. He has authored more than 250 original publications, more than 80 review papers and book chapters, two monographs and several patents. Likharev is a Fellow of the APS and IEEE.
