Product Description
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Fermi?Dirac statistics (F?D statistics) is a part of the science of physics that describes the energies of single particles in a system comprising many identical particles that obey the Pauli Exclusion Principle. It is named after Enrico Fermi and Paul Dirac, who each discovered it independently. F?D statistics applies to identical particles with half-integer spin in a system in thermal equilibrium. Additionally, the particles in this system are assumed to have negligible mutual interaction. This allows the many-particle system to be described in terms of single-particle energy states. The result is the Fermi?Dirac distribution of particles over these states and includes the condition that no two particles can occupy the same state, which has a considerable effect on the properties of the system. Since Fermi?Dirac statistics applies to particles with half-integer spin, they have come to be called fermions. It is most commonly applied to electrons, which are fermions with spin 1/2. Fermi?Dirac statistics is a part of the more general field of statistical mechanics and uses the principles of quantum mechanics. ... Read more

Product Description
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Dirac delta or Dirac's delta is a mathematical construct introduced by theoretical physicist Paul Dirac. Informally, it is a generalized function representing an infinitely sharp peak bounding unit area: a 'function' ?(x) that has the value zero everywhere except at x = 0 where its value is infinitely large in such a way that its total integral is 1. In the context of signal processing it is often referred to as the unit impulse function. The Dirac delta is not strictly a function, because any function that is equal to zero everywhere but a single point must have total integral zero. While for many purposes it can be manipulated as a function, formally it can be defined as a distribution that is also a measure. In many applications, the Dirac delta is regarded as a kind of limit (a weak limit) of a sequence of functions having a tall spike at the origin. The approximating functions of the sequence are thus "approximate" or "nascent" delta functions. ... Read more

Kapitel: Paul Dirac, John Robert Schrieffer, Ernst Von Dohnányi, Lew Petrowitsch Gorkow, Robert Gagné, Martin Esslin, Max Paul Friedman, George Marsaglia. Aus Wikipedia. Nicht dargestellt. Auszug: Paul Adrien Maurice Dirac, OM, FRS (pronounced ; 8 August 1902 - 20 October 1984) was a British theoretical physicist. Dirac made fundamental contributions to the early development of both quantum mechanics and quantum electrodynamics. He held the Lucasian Chair of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge and spent the last fourteen years of his life at Florida State University. Among other discoveries, he formulated the Dirac equation, which describes the behaviour of fermions and which led to the prediction of the existence of antimatter. Dirac shared the Nobel Prize in physics for 1933 with Erwin Schrödinger, "for the discovery of new productive forms of atomic theory." Paul Dirac was born in Bristol, England and grew up in the Bishopston area of the city. His father, Charles Dirac, was an immigrant from Saint-Maurice in the Canton of Valais, Switzerland. His mother was originally from Cornwall and the daughter of a mariner. Paul had an elder brother, Félix, who committed suicide in March 1925, and a younger sister, Béatrice. His early family life appears to have been unhappy due to his father's unusually strict and authoritarian nature. He was educated first at Bishop Road Primary School and then at Merchant Venturers' Technical College (later Cotham School), where his father was a French teacher. The school was an institution attached to the University of Bristol, which emphasized scientific subjects and modern languages. This was an unusual arrangement at a time when secondary education in Britain was still dedicated largely to the classics, and something for which Dirac would later express gratitude. Dirac studied electrical engineering at the University of Bristol, completing his degree in 1921. He then decided that his true...http://booksllc.net/?l=de ... Read more

Product Description
In physics, the Dirac equation is a relativistic quantum mechanical wave equation formulated by British physicist Paul Dirac in 1928 which provides a description of elementary spin-½ particles, such as electrons, consistent with both the principles of quantum mechanics and the theory of special relativity. The equation demands the existence of antiparticles and actually predated their experimental discovery, making the discovery of the positron, the antiparticle of the electron, one of the greatest triumphs of modern theoretical physics. ...

This first full-length biography of Paul Adrien Maurice Dirac offers a comprehensive account of his physics in its historical context, including less known areas such as cosmology and classical electron theory.It is based extensively on unpublished sources, including Dirac's correspondence with Bohr, Heisenberg, Pauli, Schrödinger, Gamow and others.Dirac was undoubtedly one of the most brilliant and influential physicists of the twentieth century.Between 1925 and 1934, the Nobel Prize laureate revolutionized physics with his brilliant contributions to quantum theory. This work examines Dirac's successes and failures, and pays particular attention to his opposition to modern quantum electrodynamics; an opposition based on aesthetic objections. ... Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars ok
This book is a very in depth scientific biography of the famous theoretical physicist. Since it is a scientific biography it is heavy on the physics and prepare yourself to see a lot of equations. Also prepare to not see explanation of notation. All in all this is probably not a great biography for the layman and even the physicist who reads it will hopefully know a bit of QED since a lot of his career revolved around that subject.

The book may not be to blame for not being a great read. This is simply because Dirac did not especially do much in his life but physics. Therefore, in the book there is little connect to more familiar pieces of history. Contrast this with the life of Einstein or any of the German physicists of the time period.

My favorite parts of the book were the anecdotes of Dirac's bizarre, reclusive, and ultra-logical personality. For instance, someone once called him up and invited him to an event. Dirac said he would think about it and then put the phone down on the table, not hanging it up. After thinking for a minute, he picked it up again and gave his answer. Many more humorous examples were in the book. ... Read more

From the supplier: Physicist Robert Oppenheimer and poet Stephen Spender had much in common. Both had great talent and were acutely aware of it. Both befriended genuises in their fields that they admired greatly: Paul A.M. Dirac and W.H. Auden. Neither Oppenheimer, nor Spender, could emerge from the shadow of their friends' geniuses.
