The Fundamentals of Atomic and Molecular Physics is
intended as an introduction to the field for advanced undergraduates who
have taken quantum mechanics. Each chapter builds upon the previous,
using the same tools and methods throughout. As the students progress
through the book, their ability to use these tools will steadily
increase, along with their confidence in their efficacy. The book treats
the two-electron atom as the simplest example of the many-electron
atom—as opposed to using techniques that are not applicable to
many-electron atoms—so that it is unnecessary to develop additional
equations when turning to multielectron atoms, such as carbon. External
fields are treated using both perturbation theory and direct
diagonalization and spontaneous emission is developed from first
principles. Only diatomic molecules are considered with the hydrogen
molecular ion and neutral molecule treated in some detail. This
comprehensive coverage of the quantum mechanics of complex atoms and
simple diatomic molecules, developed from the very basic components, is
extremely useful for students considering graduate studies in any area
of physics.
