Description for Theoretical Chemistry and Physics of Heavy and Superheavy Elements Hardback. There has been a growing interest in relativistic quantum chemical methods and the associated computational algorithms which facilitate their application. This book provides a detailed description of the application of relativistic quantum mechanics to the many-body problem in the theoretical chemistry and physics of heavy and superheavy elements. Editor(s): Kaldor, U. (School of Chemistry, Tel Aviv University, Israel); Wilson, Stephen (Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Oxfordshire). Series: Progress in Theoretical Chemistry & Physics. Num Pages: 584 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PHQ; PNK. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 297 x 210 x 31. Weight in Grams: 995.
Quantum mechanics provides the fundamental theoretical apparatus for describing the structure and properties of atoms and molecules in terms of the behaviour of their fundamental components, electrons and nudeL For heavy atoms and molecules containing them, the electrons can move at speeds which represent a substantial fraction of the speed of light, and thus relativity must be taken into account. Relativistic quantum mechanics therefore provides the basic formalism for calculating the properties of heavy-atom systems. The purpose of this book is to provide a detailed description of the application of relativistic quantum mechanics to the many-body prob­ lem in the ... Read more
