Written in the three-dimensional notation of vector calculus, it can be followed by undergraduate physics students, although some notions of Lagrangian dynamics and group theory are required. It is intended as a general course at a postgraduate level for all-purpose physicists. This book presents a unified approach to classical and quantum mechanics of spinning particles, with symmetry principles as the starting point. A classical concept of an elementary particle is presented. The variational statements to deal with spinning particles are revisited. It is shown that, by explicitly constructing different models, symmetry principles are sufficient for the description of either classical or quantum-mechanical elementary particles. Several spin effects are analyzed.Fundamental theories of physics ;v. 116.Nuclear spinElectronic books.Nuclear spin.539.7/25Rivas Martin1944-850348MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910454796303321Kinematical theory of spinning particles1898695UNINA
