Coupled Mode and Parametric Electronics

F.J. Hyde

Published Jul 1, 1961• 72 citations
Publisher

Abstract

By William H. Louisell London and New York: John Wiley and Sons Ltd. Pp. xv + 268. Price 91s. This is a very good book, carefully written and extremely well presented. The theory of coupled modes is introduced as an analytical tool at an elementary level in relation to simple harmonic oscillators.

Principles of Modern Physics

Guilherme Wyllie

By A. P. French New York : John Wiley and Sons, Inc. ; London : Chapman and Hall, Ltd. Pp. ix + 355. Price 54s. This is a very useful book indeed. If one compares it with two widely used texts, Slater's Modern Physics and Born's Atomic Physics, this book is more advanced and comprehensive than Slater's, less so than Born's.

Introduction to Classical and Quantum Harmonic Oscillators

Heimo G. Latal

As the title aptly states, this book deals with harmonic oscillators of various kinds, from classical mechanical and electrical oscillations up to quantum oscillations. It is written in a lively language, and occasional interspersed anecdotes make the reading of an otherwise mathematically oriented text quite a pleasure. Although the author claims to have written an `elementary introduction', it is certainly necessary to have a good deal of previous knowledge in physics (mechanics, electrodynamics, quantum theory), electrical engineering and, of course, mathematics in order to follow the general line of his arguments. The book begins with a thorough treatment of classical oscillators (free, damped, forced) that is followed by an elaboration on Fourier analysis. Lagrange and Hamilton formalisms are then introduced before the problem of coupled oscillations is attacked. A chapter on statistical perspectives leads over to the final discussion of quantum oscillations. With the book comes a diskette containing a number of worksheets (Microsoft Excel) that can be used by the reader for instant visualization to get a better qualitative and quantitative understanding of the material. To the reviewer it seems difficult to pinpoint exactly the range of prospective readership of the book. It can certainly not be intended as a textbook for students, but rather as a reference book for teachers of physics or researchers, who want to look up one or other aspect of harmonic oscillations, for which purpose the diskette represents a very valuable tool.

Quantum Electronics

P N Butcher

A. Yariv London: John Wiley . 1967 Pp. xvi + 478. Price £5 15s. This book deals with the generation of coherent radiation by processes in which Planck's constant plays a significant role and with the application of coherent radiation to physics and engineering. The first six chapters contain a review of the relevant quantum mechanics.

Classical Mechanics

I. I. Berenblut

By J. W. Leech London : Methuen & Co. Ltd. New York : John Wiley & Sons Inc. Pp. ix + 149. Price 12s. 6d. Classical Mechanics, that is the development of Newton's laws of motion into generalized forms suitable for all types of co-ordinate systems, formed the basis and inspiration for the newer concepts of Wave Mechanics. The book under review is a concise and well written introduction to both Quantum and Relativity Mechanics, via the traditional paths of Langrangian and Hamiltonian Functions and Variational Principles.

Mathematics and wave Mechanics

Leslie Howarth

By R. H. Atkin London : William Heinemann Ltd. Pp. 348 + xv. Price 30s. This is a difficult book for a professional mathematician to review since it's neither aimed at him nor primarily at his students. In his preface the author says that: "Assuming the reader's mathematics is reliable at a level which he would normally reach prior to entering a University, I have tried to select a course of study which is logically connected and yet adequate for the pursuit of modern quantum theory....
