Relativistic Quantum Mechanics and Field Theory fills this striking gap in the field. With a strong emphasis on applications to practical problems as well as calculations, Dr. Gross provides complete, up-to-date coverage of both elementary and advanced topics essential for a well-round 410 0$aWiley science paperback series. 606 $aRelativistic quantum theory 606 $aQuantum field theory 606 $aSymmetry (Physics) 606 $aGauge fields (Physics) 606 $aTeoria quàntica de camps$2thub 606 $aSimetria (Física)$2thub 606 $aCamps de galga (Física)$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aRelativistic quantum theory. 615 0$aQuantum field theory. 615 0$aSymmetry (Physics) 615 0$aGauge fields (Physics) 615 7$aTeoria quàntica de camps 615 7$aSimetria (Física) 615 7$aCamps de galga (Física) 676 $a530.12 676 $a539.7 700 $aGross$b Franz$053444 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910144733903321 996 $aRelativistic quantum mechanics and field theory$9190073 997 $aUNINA
