Bøger af Wolfgang Pauli

This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the original. Due to its age, it may contain imperfections such as marks, notations, marginalia and flawed pages. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions that are true to the original work.

From the last decade of Pauli's life, more than 2000 of his letters have survived. In addition to discussing questions of physics they provide illuminating insights into debates on the philosophical and human components of the history of science.

Pauli wrote this volume of letters during the last two years of his life and it completes the publication of his extensive correspondence. It includes over 700 letters between Pauli and other leading physicists such as Wu, Telegdi and Lederman.

W. Paulis Handbuchartikel Die allgemeinen Prinzipien der Wellenmechanik übertraf für Jahrzehnte alle anderen Darstellungen an Tiefe und Gründlichkeit. Er sollte nach wie vor von jedem Studierenden, der sich ernsthaft mit den Grundlagen der Quantentheorie auseinandersetzen will, zu Rate gezogen werden. Paulis konzentrierte Darstellung der nichtrelativistischen Quantenmechanik hat als Klassiker die Zeiten überdauert. Sie macht den ersten Teil des Werks aus, der zweite behandelt Diracs relativistische Quantentheorie zum Einkörperproblem und zur Strahlung. Der Herausgeber hat das Werk durch ein wissenschaftliches Kurzportrait Paulis und zahlreiche Anmerkungen ergänzt, so daß das Buch auch als ein Beitrag zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte gesehen werden muß. Das Buch eignet sich für Studenten ab dem 4. Semester.

From the final decade of Pauli's life, nearly 2000 letters survive. These are collected in this fundamental work on the history of physics in the post-war era. Going beyond physics, these letters also shed light on the cultural and philosophical background of our natural sciences.

Comprehensive, clearly presented work considers quantization of the electron-positron field, response to an external field, quantization of free field, quantum electrodynamics, interacting fields, and more.

Comprehensive coverage of the historical development and current problems of electrodynamics, followed by sections on electrostatics and magnetostatics, steady-state currents, quasi-static fields, and rapidly varying fields.

Eighty letters, written over twenty-six years, record that friendship, and are published here in English for the first time.

Important text represents a concise course on the subject, centering on the historic development of basic ideals and logical structure of the theory, with particular emphasis on Brownian motion and quantum statistics.

His greatest achievement, the exclusion principle, generally known today under his own name as the Pauli principle, that governs the quantum theory of all problems including more than one electron, preceded the basic work of Heisenberg and Schrodinger, and brought him the Nobel prize.
