Fundamentals of Modern Physics (eBook, ePUB)

Unveiling the mysteries

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Modern physics is the branch of physics that emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, revolutionizing our understanding of the fundamental laws governing the universe at both the smallest and largest scales. It encompasses quantum mechanics, relativity, nuclear physics, particle physics, astrophysics, and cosmology. It has led to paradigm shifts, technological advances, and a deeper understanding of the physical universe. The impact of modern physics on science has been transformative. It has revolutionized our understanding of the universe, from the behaviour of subatomic particles to the nature of space and time. It has led to the development of advanced technologies, including semiconductors, lasers, and nuclear power, which have revolutionized various fields such as computing, communications, and energy production.

This book is aimed at undergraduate and graduate students, introducing them to the mysteries of modern physics. Throughout this book, we minimize the derivation of equations, allowing readers to develop intuitive understandings of these concepts. By shedding light on the unsolved mysteries of modern physics, we aim to reveal how the progress of experimental technology not only solves.
