The Physics of Atoms and Quanta [E-Book] : Introduction to Experiments and Theory / by Hermann Haken, Hans Christoph Wolf.
The second edition of this book again enjoyed a very positive reception from both uni versity teachers and students. In this edition we have removed all of the typographical errors that came to our attention. In order to keep the book as current as possible, new developments in the direct observati...
