London: Springer, 2010. xvii, 589 p. : ill. ; 25 cm. Includes bibliographical references and index Atoms, Molecules and Photons: An Introduction to Atomic, Molecular and Quantum Physics provides a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental principles governing matter and radiation at microscopic scales. The book explores the structure and properties of atoms and molecules, emphasizing the quantum-mechanical concepts required to understand their behavior. Beginning with the historical development of atomic theory and quantum mechanics, it explains wave-particle duality, quantum states, and the mathematical foundations of quantum physics. The text examines atomic structure, electron configurations, and interactions between atoms and electromagnetic radiation. It further discusses molecular bonding, molecular spectra, and the physical principles underlying chemical and optical phenomena. Special attention is given to photons and their role in light-matter interactions, including absorption, emission, and scattering processes. Combining theoretical explanations with practical applications, the book bridges classical physics and modern quantum science, making complex concepts accessible to students of physics, chemistry, and related disciplines. It serves as an essential resource for understanding contemporary developments in spectroscopy, laser physics, nanotechnology, and quantum technologies, providing a solid foundation for advanced study in atomic, molecular, and quantum physics. http://172.20.27.22:4000/handle/123456789/192 Science Nuclear physics http://172.20.27.22:4000/handle/123456789/192 http://172.20.27.22:4000/handle/123456789/192 lcc BK 0 4463 4463 0 0 lcc 0 0 SCI DL DL SCI QB461–QC981 2026-06-22 0 DUCE QC171.2 .D46 2026-06-22 09:48:49 2026-06-22 BK
