1. The theory of special relativity : The lorentz transformation -- 2. : The lorentz transformation : Relativistic dynamics -- 3. The general theory relativity -- 4. Roots of the quantum theory -- 5. The bohr-Rutherford nuclear atom -- 6. The wave nature of particles -- 7. The schrodinger -- 8. The schrodinger equation in three dimension -- 9. Intrinsic spin of the electron -- 10. Molecular structure and molecular spectra -- 11. Statistical physics -- 12. Solid-state physics 1 : Structure of crystalline solids and electron energy bands -- 13. Solid-state physics 2 : Electronic properties -- 14. Nuclear physics 1: Properties of nuclei -- 15. Nuclear physics 2 : Radioactivity and nuclear reactions -- 16. Instrumentation for nuclear research -- 17. Elementary particles.
Summary: Designed for a one-term modern physics course, this text adopts a calculus-based approach and introduces the student to both quantum and nuclear physics. The book covers the major topics of modern physics but also provides a survey of earlier work that paved the way for modern physics.
