Quantum Theory: Physics Equations Book

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the search for a comprehensive book that lists and describes physics equations, particularly those related to quantum theory. While no specific book solely dedicated to listing equations is identified, participants suggest resources like Feynman's Lectures on Physics and various handbooks of physics formulae that serve as references. Key equations mentioned include Newton's second law (F = ma), the Schrödinger equation (Hψ = Eψ), and Maxwell's equations (∂μFμν = 0). The conversation emphasizes the utility of handbooks for quick reference rather than in-depth learning.

I was wondering if there was a book that listed and described the majority of physics equations, especially the ones pertaining to quantum theory?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
I don't know why you'd want that particular kind of book, and I don't know of one that just lists equations. What are you trying to learn?
 
Feynman's Lectures on Physics, Volumes I II and III ? :smile:
 
F = ma

H\psi = E\psi

\partial_\mu F^{\mu \nu} = 0

What else is there to know?
 
thank you tiny tim

Thread 'Ashcroft and Mermin: revised edition'

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!
