This book studies the application of quantum mechanics to some of the most current and notable concepts in the area, such as quantum optics, cryptography, teleportation, and computing. Written as a complete and comprehensive course text, this book works through mathematically rigorous material using a clear and practical approach that facilitates student engagement, and highlights the fundamental principles of quantum physics used to develop quantum computing. Emphasising the mathematical and theoretical treatments appropriate for undergraduate and postgraduate students, this book offers a simple step by step explanation of Quantum Computing and Quantum Optics, appropriate for courses in those subjects, their students, and engineers.

Key Features:

Provides an introductory guide to quantum optics and quantum computation

Includes worked examples and illustrations throughout

Presents diagrammatic representations

End-of-chapter problems included

Highlights data and essential concepts with reference materials for further reading

The topics of nuclear physics, particle physics and cosmology are closely connected. As the first volume of a two-volume set, this book covers nuclear physics and can be treated as a complete course on the subject. The book is divided into a set of eight modules or chapters and covers the majority of topics referred to in undergraduate and postgraduate courses on nuclear physics, such as radioactivity, nuclear models, nuclear reaction, nuclear fission and fusion, deuteron problem and scattering. This course text follows a simple style, with a lucid approach and step-by-step explanations. Every effort has been made to describe things in a manner that is understandable and care has been taken to provide illustrations whenever applicable.

Key Features

Written as a self-contained, self-help book Contains theory, problems and solutions (numeral type, MCQ type, critical type) Written in a down-to-earth, accessible style Covers applications of nuclear techniques
