Quantum Electrodynamics [E-Book] / by Walter Greiner, Joachim Reinhardt.
The need for a second edition of our text on Quantum Electrodynamics has given us the opportunity to implement some corrections and amendments. We have corrected a number of misprints and minor errors and have supplied additional explanatory remarks at various places. Furthermore some new material h...
