PrefaceThis book is intended as a modern physics text for science majors and engineering students who have already completed an introductory calculus-basedphysics course. The contents of this text may be subdivided into two broad categories: an introduction to the theories of relativity, quantum and statisticalphysics (Chapters 1 through 10) and applications of elementary quantum theory to molecular, solid-state, nuclear, and particle physics (Chapters 11through 16).OBJECTIVESOur basic objectives in this book are threefold:1. To provide simple, clear, and mathematically uncomplicated explanations of physical concepts and theories of modern physics.2. To clarify and show support for these theories through a broad range ofcurrent applications and examples. In this regard, we have attempted toanswer questions such as: What holds molecules together? How do electrons tunnel through barriers? How do electrons move through solids?How can currents persist indefinitely in superconductors?3. To enliven and humanize the text with brief sketches of the historical development of 20th century physics, including anecdotes and quotationsfrom the key figures as well as interesting photographs of noted scientistsand original apparatus.COVERAGETopics. The material covered in this book is concerned with fundamentaltopics in modern physics with extensive applications in science and engineering. Chapters 1 and 2 present an introduction to the special theory of relativity. Chapter 2 also contains an introduction to general relativity. Chapters 3through 5 present an historical and conceptual introduction to early developments in quantum theory, including a discussion of key experiments that showthe quantum aspects of nature. Chapters 6 through 9 are an introduction tothe real “nuts and bolts” of quantum mechanics, covering the Schrödingerequation, tunneling phenomena, the hydrogen atom, and multielectronivCopyright 2005 Thomson Learning, Inc.

PREFACEatoms, while Chapter 10 contains an introduction to statistical physics. The remainder of the book consists mainly of applications of the theory set forth inearlier chapters to more specialized areas of modern physics. In particular,Chapter 11 discusses the physics of molecules, while Chapter 12 is an introduction to the physics of solids and electronic devices. Chapters 13 and 14 covernuclear physics, methods of obtaining energy from nuclear reactions,and medical and other applications of nuclear processes. Chapter 15 treatselementary particle physics, and Chapter 16 (available online at http://info.brookscole.com/mp3e) covers cosmology.CHANGES TO THE THIRD EDITIONThe third edition contains two major changes from the second edition: First,this edition has been extensively rewritten in order to clarify difficult concepts,aid understanding, and bring the text up to date with rapidly developing technical applications of quantum physics. Artwork and the order of presentationof certain topics have been revised to help in this process. (Many new photosof physicists have been added to the text, and a new collection of color photographs of modern physics phenomena is also available on the Book Companion Web Site.) Typically, each chapter contains new worked examples andfive new end-of-chapter questions and problems. Finally, the Suggestions for Further Reading have been revised as needed.Second, this edition refers the reader to a new, online (platform independent) simulation package, QMTools, developed by one of the authors, CurtMoyer. We think these simulations clarify, enliven, and complement the analytical solutions presented in the text. Icons in the text highlight the problemsdesigned for use with this software, which provides modeling tools to help students visualize abstract concepts. All instructions about the general use of thesoftware as well as specific instructions for each problem are contained on theBook Companion Web Site, thereby minimizing interruptions to the logicalflow of the text. The Book Companion Web Site at http://info.brookscole.mp3e also contains appendices and much supplemental information on current physics research and applications, allowing interested readers to digdeeper into many topics.Specific changes by chapter in this third edition are as follows: Chapter 1 in the previous editions, “Relativity,” has been extensively revisedand divided into two chapters. The new Chapter 1, entitled “Relativity I,”contains the history of relativity, new derivations of the Lorentz coordinateand velocity transformations, and a new section on spacetime and causality. Chapter 2, entitled “Relativity II,” covers relativistic dynamics and energyand includes new material on general relativity, gravitational radiation,and the applications GPS (Global Positioning System) and LIGO (theLaser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory). Chapter 3 has been streamlined with a more concise treatment of theRayleigh-Jeans and Planck blackbody laws. Material necessary for a complete derivation of these results has been placed on our Book CompanionWeb Site. Chapter 5 contains a new section on the invention and principles of operation of transmission and scanning electron microscopes.Copyright 2005 Thomson Learning, Inc. All Rights Reserved.v

viPREFACE Chapter 6, “Quantum Mechanics in One Dimension,” features a newapplication on the principles of operation and utility of CCDs (ChargeCoupled Devices).Chapter 8, “Quantum Mechanics in Three Dimensions,” includes a newdiscussion on the production and spectroscopic study of anti-hydrogen, astudy which has important consequences for several fundamental physicalquestions.Chapter 10 presents new material on the connection of wavefunctionsymmetry to the Bose-Einstein condensation and the Pauli exclusion principle, as well as describing potential applications of Bose-Einstein condensates.Chapter 11 contains new material explaining Raman scattering, fluorescence, and phosphorescence, as well as giving applications of theseprocesses to pollution detection and biomedical research. This chapterhas also been streamlined with the discussion of overlap integrals beingmoved to the Book Companion Web Site.Chapter 12 has been carefully revised for clarification and features newmaterial on semiconductor devices, in particular MOSFETs and chips. Inaddition, the most important facts about superconductivity have beensummarized, updated, and included in Chapter 12. For those desiringmore material on superconductivity, the entire superconductivity chapterfrom previous editions is available at the Book Companion Web Sitealong with essays on the history of the laser and solar cells.Chapter 13 contains new material on MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and an interesting history of the determination of the age of theEarth.Chapter 14 presents updated sections on fission reactor safety and wastedisposal, fusion reactor results, and applications of nuclear physics totracing, neutron activation analysis, radiation therapy, and other areas.Chapter 15 has been extensively rewritten in an attempt to convey thethrust toward unification in particle physics. By way of achieving this goal,new discussions of positrons, neutrino mass and oscillation, conservationlaws, and grand unified theories, including supersymmetry and string theory, have been introduced.Chapter 16 is a new chapter devoted exclusively to the exciting topic ofthe origin and evolution of the universe. Topics covered include the discovery of the expanding universe, primordial radiation, inflation, the future evolution of the universe, dark matter, dark energy, and the accelerating expansion of the universe. This cosmology chapter is available onour Book Companion Web Site.FEATURES OF THIS TEXTQMTools Five chapters contain several new problems requiring the use ofour simulation software, QMTools. QMTools is a sophisticated interactive learning tool with considerable flexibility and scope. Using QMTools, students cancompose matter-wave packets and study their time evolution, find stationarystate energies and wavefunctions, and determine the probability for particletransmission and reflection from nearly any potential well or barrier. Access toQMTools is available online at http://info.brookscole.com/mp3e.Copyright 2005 Thomson Learning, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

PREFACEStyle. We have attempted to write this book in a style that is clear and succinct yet somewhat informal, in the hope that readers will find the text appealing and enjoyable to read. All new terms have been carefully defined, and wehave tried to avoid jargon.Worked Examples. A large number of worked examples of varying difficultyare presented as an aid in understanding both concepts and the chain of reasoning needed to solve realistic problems. In many cases, these examples willserve as models for solving some end-of-chapter problems. The examples areset off with colored bars for ease of location, and most examples are given titles to describe their content.Exercises Following Examples. As an added feature, many of the workedexamples are followed immediately by exercises with answers. These exercisesare intended to make the textbook more interactive with the student, andto test immediately the student’s understanding of key concepts and problemsolving techniques. The exercises represent extensions of the worked examplesand are numbered in case the instructor wishes to assign them for homework.Problems and Questions. An extensive set of questions and problems is included at the end of each chapter. Most of the problems are listed by sectiontopic. Answers to all odd-numbered problems are given at the end of thebook. Problems span a range of difficulty and more challenging problemshave colored numbers. Most of the questions serve to test the student’s understanding of the concepts presented in a given chapter, and many can be usedto motivate classroom discussions.Units. The international system of units (SI) is used throughout the text.Occasionally, where common usage dictates, other units are used (such as theangstrom, Å, and cm 1, commonly used by spectroscopists), but all such unitsare carefully defined in terms of SI units.Chapter Format. Each chapter begins with a preview, which includes a briefdiscussion of chapter objectives and content. Marginal notes set in color are usedto locate important concepts and equations in the text. Important statements areitalicized or highlighted, and important equations are set in a colored box foradded emphasis and ease of review. Each chapter concludes with a summary,which reviews the important concepts and equations discussed in that chapter.In addition, many chapters contain special topic sections which are clearlymarked optional. These sections expose the student to slightly more advancedmaterial either in the form of current interesting discoveries or as fuller developments of concepts or calculations discussed in that chapter. Many of thesespecial topic sections will be of particular interest to certain student groupssuch as chemistry majors, electrical engineers, and physics majors.Guest Essays. Another feature of this text is the inclusion of interesting material in the form of essays by guest authors. These essays cover a wide range oftopics and are intended to convey an insider’s view of exciting current developments in modern physics. Furthermore, the essay topics present extensionsand/or applications of the material discussed in specific chapters. Some of theCopyright 2005 Thomson Learning, Inc. All Rights Reserved.vii

viiiPREFACEessay topics covered are recent developments in general relativity, the scanning tunneling microscope, superconducting devices, the history of the laser,laser cooling of atoms, solar cells, and how the top quark was detected. Theguest essays are either included in the text or referenced as being on our Website at appropriate points in the text.Mathematical Level. Students using this text should have completed a comprehensive one-year calculus course, as calculus is used throughout the text.However, we have made an attempt to keep physical ideas foremost so as not toobscure our presentations with overly elegant mathematics. Most steps are shownwhen basic equations are developed, but exceptionally long and detailed proofswhich interrupt the flow of physical arguments have been placed in appendices.Appendices and Endpapers. The appendices in this text serve several purposes. Lengthy derivations of important results needed in physical discussionshave been placed on our Web site to avoid interrupting the main flow of arguments. Other appendices needed for quick reference are located at the end ofthe book. These contain physical constants, a table of atomic masses, and a listof Nobel prize winners. The endpapers inside the front cover of the book contain important physical constants and standard abbreviations of units used inthe book, and conversion factors for quick reference, while a periodic table isincluded in the rear cover endpapers.Ancillaries. The ancillaries available with this text include a Student Solutions Manual, which has solutions to all odd-numbered problems in the book,an Instructor’s Solutions Manual, consisting of solutions to all problems in thetext, and a Multimedia Manager, a CD-ROM lecture tool that contains digitalversions of all art and selected photographs in the text.TEACHING OPTIONSAs noted earlier, the text may be subdivided into two basic parts: Chapters 1through 10, which contain an introduction to relativity, quantum physics, andstatistical physics, and Chapters 11 through 16, which treat applications tomolecules, the solid state, nuclear physics, elementary particles, and cosmology. It is suggested that the first part of the book be covered sequentially. However, the relativity chapters may actually be covered at any time because E 2 p 2c 2 m2c4 is the only formula from these chapters which is essential for subsequent chapters. Chapters 11 through 16 are independent of one anotherand can be covered in any order with one exception: Chapter 14, “NuclearPhysics Applications,” should follow Chapter 13, “Nuclear Structure.”A traditional sophomore or junior level modern physics course for science,mathematics, and engineering students should cover most of Chapters 1through 10 and several of the remaining chapters, depending on the studentmajor. For example, an audience consisting mainly of electrical engineering students might cover most of Chapters 1 through 10 with particular emphasis ontunneling and tunneling devices in Chapter 7, the Fermi-Dirac distribution inChapter 10, semiconductors in Chapter 12, and radiation detectors in Chapter14. Chemistry and chemical engineering majors could cover most of Chapters 1through 10 with special emphasis on atoms in Chapter 9, classical and quantumCopyright 2005 Thomson Learning, Inc.

PREFACEstatistics in Chapter 10, and molecular bonding and spectroscopy in Chapter 11.Mathematics and physics majors should pay special attention to the unique development of operator methods and the concept of sharp and fuzzy observablesintroduced in Chapter 6. The deep connection of sharp observables with classically conserved quantities and the powerful role of sharp observables in shapingthe form of system wavefunctions is developed more fully in Chapter 8.Our experience has shown that there is more material contained in thisbook than can be covered in a standard one semester three-credit-hourcourse. For this reason, one has to “pick-and-choose” from topics in the second part of the book as noted earlier. However, the text can also be used in atwo-semester sequence with some supplemental material, such as one of manymonographs on relativity, and/or selected readings in the areas of solid state,nuclear, and elementary particle physics. Some selected readings are suggested at the end of each chapter.ACKNOWLEDGMENTSWe wish to thank the users and reviewers of the first and second editions whogenerously shared with us their comments and criticisms.
