TextLanguage: Eng Publisher: New Delhi S Chand And Company Limited 2021Edition: Ed 18Description: xvi,1067 p. PB 23.5x16.5 cmISBN: 9789352837236Subject(s): Modern PhysicsDDC classification: 539 Summary: The eighteenth edition of this well-known textbook continues to provide a thorough understanding of the principles of modern physics. It offers a detailed presentation of important topics such as atomic physics, quantum mechanics, nuclear physics, solid state physics and electronics. The concepts are exhaustively presented with numerous examples and diagrams which would help the students in analysing and retaining the concepts in an effective manner. This textbook is a useful resource
for undergraduate students and will also serve as a reference text for PG students.Summary: Key Features
• Comprehensive and focused coverage on Quantum Mechanics with an enhanced
discussion on Dirac Notation under the chapter on Operator Formalism
• Extensively revised, Semiconductor Devices comprehensively discusses topics
such as Frequency Modulation and Operational Amplifiers as well as covers new
topics such as FM Transmitter and FM Receiver
• Discussion on relevant topics such as Classical Mechanics and Mathematical
Physics under Theoretical Physics
• Over 700 questions provided to test and strengthen students' understanding of
the concepts
