摘要:The book presents a new conceptual approach to atomic structure, suitable as a textbook for an introductory graduate course or a resource for an undergraduate quantum mechanics course. The historical basis of the field is emphasized. Many worked examples provide connections with astrophysics, chemistry, condensed matter, and other related fields.
