内容説明
This introductory volume emphasises our understanding of the fundamental forces - gravitation, electromagnetism - and the fundamental particles on which they act and which go to build atoms and molecules. There are chapters on concepts; invariance and conservation laws; covariance scalars, vectors, tensors; the electromagnetic field; cosmology; and much more.
目次
- Concepts of physics
- Invariance and conservation laws
- Covariance, scalars, vectors and tensors
- The discrete in nature - the atoms of Demokritos
- The continuum in nature - Faraday's fields
- The nature of space and time - the special theory of relativity
- The equivalence principle and the general theory of relativity
- The electro-magnetic field - the first unified field theory
- The problem of change - the second law of thermodynamics
- Quantum mechanics - determinism to probablility
- The atom - a quantum laboratory
- Fundamental particles and forces - an introduction
- Symmetries and conservation laws - CPT
- The strong interactions
- The weak interactions
- Cosmology - the world's beginning and end
- Gauge invariance
- - the unification of fields
- To the ultimate theory - through a glass darkly.
