Las reflexiones aquí recogidas están más bien relacionadas con la ausencia de simetría en el mundo que nos rodea. La asimetría es un fenómeno observable a nivel cotidiano desde que nos levantamos y nos miramos en el espejo. Nuestro cuerpo externamente es claramente asimetrico, y esta caracteristica se pone de manifiesto facilmente si tomamos una foto y realizamos un reflejo de la mitad de nuestra cara en el otro lado. Tras este tipo de reflexion se obtiene un rostro simetrico, que corresponde a una persona diferente de la que vemos frente a nosotros en el espejo. En el interior de nuestro cuerpo la asimetria todavia es mas patente.

This book discusses many advances in optical physic, and is aimed at advanced undergraduates taking courses in atomic physics, or graduate students in the fields of lasers, astrophysics, and physical chemistry. The book is intended mainly for experimentalists, and the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with free atoms is introduced using classical or semi-classical calculations wherever possible. Topics discussed include the spontaneous emission of radiation, stimulated transitions and the properties of gas and turnable dye lasers, and the physics and applications of resonance fluorescence, optical double resonance, optical pumping, and atomic beam magnetic resonance experiments.

Para reforzar el aprendizaje, se agregaron nuevas preguntas de repaso a lo largo del libro. Se agregaron ecuaciones de fin de capítulo, para el estudiante y el profesor. Se incluyó un nuevo ensayo de "quimica en accion" sobre la teoria de la captura de neutron del boro en el capitulo 23. Se agregaron problemas conceptuales del fin-de-capitulo para reforzar la revision de conceptos. Se rehicieron los esquemas moleculares de todo el capitulo 10 y en algunos otros capitulos.

Clary's account makes for fascinating reading, not least because of its clear style and copious citation of primary sources and original scientific articles. The author provides a compelling narrative of Schrodinger's departure in 1933 from a highly eminent position at the University of Berlin to a precarious, untenured position at Magdalen College with political and scientific considerations deftly woven together.' [Read Full Review]ScienceErwin Schrodinger was one of the greatest scientists of all time but it is not widely known that he was a Fellow at Magdalen College, Oxford in the 1930s. This book is an authoritative account of Schrodinger's time in Oxford by Sir David Clary, an expert on quantum chemistry and a former President of Magdalen College, who describes Schrodinger's remarkable life and scientific contributions in a language that can be understood by all. Through access to many unpublished manuscripts, the author reveals in unprecedented detail the events leading up to Schrodinger's sudden departure from Berlin in 1933, his arrival in Oxford and award of the Nobel Prize, his dramatic escape from the Nazis in Austria to return to Oxford, and his urgent flight from Belgium to Dublin at the start of the Second World War.The book presents many acute observations from Schrodinger's wife Anny and his daughter Ruth, who was born in Oxford and became an acquaintance of the author in the last years of her life. It also includes a remarkable letter sent to Schrodinger in Oxford from Adolf Hitler, thanking him for his services to the state as a professor in Berlin. Schrodinger's intense interactions with other great scientists who were also refugees during this period, including Albert Einstein and Max Born, are examined in the context of the chaotic political atmosphere of the time. Fascinating anecdotes of how this flamboyant Austrian scientist interacted with the President and Fellows of a highly traditional Oxford College in the 1930s are a novel feature of the book.A gripping and intimate narrative of one of the most colourful scientists in history, Schrodinger in Oxford explains how his revolutionary breakthrough in quantum mechanics has become such a central feature in 21st century science.

El objetivo principal de este texto es proporcionar una comprensión sólida de los aspectos físicos y matemáticos de la Mecánica Cuántica y de la estructura electrónica molecular.Escrito para cualquier estudiante de especialidades Quimicas y no unicamente para especialistas en Quimica Cuantica

Pérez Martínez, J.M.; Esteban Elum, Angel L.; Galache Payá, M. PazEste texto está dirigido a estudiantes y profesores de cursos introductorios en las materias de Química Cuántica y Espectroscopia Molecular. Resultado de una dilatada experiencia docente recoge, en los quince capitulos de que consta, una serie de problemas resueltos, de diferente grado de dificultad, sobre los topicos mas habituales en las citadas materias, ofreciendo al alumno una valiosa ayuda en el proceso de autoaprendizaje.

This book presents and explains modern and in-depth approaches to calculating electronic structure and properties of molecules. The beginning of the book contains introductory material culminating in a discussion of the Hartfree-Fock approximation. The remaining text describes a variety of more sophisticated approaches, which improve upon this approximation.

Este libro pretende aportar una herramienta más para ayudar al estudio de la Química Cuántica, dentro de una licenciatura de Ciencias Químicas. La idea básica ha sido hacer un recorrido por los temas de la asignatura usando para ello la resolucion de los problemas adecuados en cada momento. Se ha incluido un resumen previo de la teoria relacionada, de forma que el alumno pueda enfrentarse a ellos con las herramientas necesarias. El texto se ha dividido en diez temas: ocho de ellos de problemas; el noveno con diversos apendices que resumen informacion de tipo matematico y fisico de gran ayuda para el alumno y el ultimo dedicado a la bibliografia para el curso.

"This is a tremendous and wonderful book for novices and experts alike. It provides a lucid and insightful look into the empirical and conceptual problems handled so successfully by quantum theory. Ghirardi also leads us through the debates concerning the interpretation and meaning of this tantalizing and fascinating theory--debates in which he himself has been one of the major participants."--"This impressive book leads the lay reader to a real understanding of the problems of interpreting quantum mechanics. It is a well-balanced, indeed wise, book, which will stand the test of time as an intellectually responsible introduction to the field. It is also so far as I know the first book at its level to have chapters on the important topics of quantum cryptography and quantum computation."--
