Modern Physics For Scientists and Engineers

Authors have developed this book from their lecture notes prepared for teaching the undergraduate level courses over past several years. This textbook covers broad variety of topics of interest in Modern Physics: The Special Theory of Relativity, Quantum Mechanics (Dual Nature of Particle as well as Schrödinger’s Equations with Applications), Atomic Physics, Molecular Physics, Nuclear Physics, Solid State Physics, Superconductivity, X-Rays, Lasers, Optical Fibres, and Motion of Charged Particle in Electromagnetic Fields.
The book is suitable as a text for various topics on Modern Physics in B.Sc., B.E., B.Tech. and A.M.I.E. degree programs. It will also serve as a reference for all those who are preparing for competition examinations.
Each topic discussed in the book is developed in a way that improves the subject understanding, and also helps students in answering conceptual and other questions. Chapter-end Exercises are designed to help students recognize particular concepts so as to strengthen their problem solving ability.
