John Dirk Walecka Bücher

Focusing on classical physics, this book is designed for introductory courses, particularly in mechanics and electricity and magnetism. Based on a successful Stanford course, it caters to high-achieving students with a solid calculus background. Each text is self-contained and features a comprehensive set of problems to deepen understanding. Additionally, solutions to these problems are available in separate publications, providing further support for both teaching and learning.

Focusing on the progression from Newton's laws to Hamilton's principle, this textbook offers a structured approach to classical mechanics. It covers essential concepts and applications, culminating in the Lagrangian mechanics of continuous systems. An extensive collection of accessible problems is included to reinforce understanding and extend learning, making it a valuable resource for students seeking clarity in complex topics.

Focusing on the technique of electron scattering, this book explores its role in revealing the structure of nuclei and nucleons. It delves into the theoretical foundations and motivations behind electron scattering, providing insights into the underlying physics at various resolutions. Designed for graduate and advanced undergraduate students, it assumes familiarity with quantum mechanics and special relativity. Additionally, it serves as a comprehensive reference for researchers in nuclear and particle physics, now available as an Open Access publication on Cambridge Core.
