From the rear cover
- the classical theory of radiation
- quantum theory of the pure radiation field
- the electron field and its interaction with radiation
- methods of solution
- radiation processes in first approximation
- radiative corrections and ambiguous features
- the penetrating power of high-energy radiation Here is a unified and accurate guide to the application of radiative processes that explores the mathematics and physics of quantum theory. The author provides numerous examples to illustrate the conceptual material and deals with basic elements of the theory. Electrons, positrons, and radiation are all discussed as are the production, propagation, and detection of em radiation. Heitler's thorough coverage of quantum physics has earned this landmark work an outstanding reputation among physicists and the book is highly recommended as both text and reference.
