New Foundations for Classical Mechanics David Hestenes (second edition, 1999). [To order this book from Kluwer see New Foundations for Classical Mechanics, 2nd Ed] This book provides an introduction to geometric algebra as a unified language for physics and mathematics. It contains extensive applications to classical mechanics in a textbook format suitable for courses at an intermediate level. The text is supported by more than 200 diagrams to help develop geometrical and physical intuition. Besides covering the standard material for a course on the mechanics of particles and rigid bodies, the book introduces new, coordinate-free methods for rotational dynamics and orbital mechanics , developing these subjects to a level well beyond that of other textbooks. These methods have been widely applied in recent years to biomechanics and robotics, to computer vision and geometric design, to orbital mechanics in governmental and industrial space programs, as well as to other branches of physics. The book applies them to the major perturbations in the solar system, including the planetary perturbations of Mercury's perihelion. Geometric algebra integrates conventional vector algebra (along with its established notations) into a system with all the advantages of quaternions and spinors. Thus, it increases the power of the mathematical language of classical mechanics while bringing it closer to the language of quantum mechanics. This book systematically develops purely mathematical applications of geometric algebra useful in physics, including extensive applications to linear algebra and transformation groups. It contains sufficient material for a course on mathematical topics alone.

Main Physics Contents page Special Relativistic Paradoxes The Barn and the Pole The Twin Paradox The Superluminal Scissors Relativity and Quantum Mechanics Contents The Barn and the Pole Updated 4-AUG-1992 by SIC Original by Robert Firth Paradoxes Contents These are the props. You own a barn, 40m long, with automatic doors at either end, that can be opened and closed simultaneously by a switch. You also have a pole, 80m long, which of course won't fit in the barn. Now someone takes the pole and tries to run (at nearly the speed of light) through the barn with the pole horizontal. Special Relativity (SR) says that a moving object is contracted in the direction of motion: this is called the Lorentz Contraction. So, if the pole is set in motion lengthwise, then it will contract in the reference frame of a stationary observer. You are that observer, sitting on the barn roof. You see the pole coming towards you, and it has contracted to a bit less than 40m. So, as the pole passes through the barn, there is an instant when it is completely within the barn. At that instant, you close both doors. Of course, you open them again pretty quickly, but at least momentarily you had the contracted pole shut up in your barn. The runner emerges from the far door unscathed. But consider the problem from the point of view of the runner. She will regard the pole as stationary, and the barn as approaching at high speed. In this reference frame, the pole is still 80m long, and the barn is less than 20 meters long. Surely the runner is in trouble if the doors close while she is inside. The pole is sure to get caught.

45. Atomcool Home Page: Welcome! Investigation of atoms at temperatures approaching absolute zero. At these low temperatures, atoms start to behave less like particles and more like waves, according to the laws of quantum mechanics. http://atomcool.rice.edu/

WELCOME to ATOMCOOL! Matter Wave Solitons in a 1D Trap You have reached the research group of Dr. Randall G. Hulet in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Rice University Professor Hulet investigates atoms at temperatures as low as a few nano-Kelvins. At these low temperatures the quantum mechanical wavelengths of the atoms can be as large as 1 micron, greatly altering normal atomic behavior. Hulet and his group have used laser cooling and atom trapping techniques to explore this exotic regime of matter, investigating ultracold atom collisions and quantum statistical effects, such as Bose-Einstein condensation. Collisions between ultracold atoms can reveal the subtle nature of their mutual interaction. Hulet and group use laser spectroscopy to probe the interatomic interaction potential. By this technique they have discovered that two Li atoms weakly attract each other at very low temperatures. Theorists believed that this fact would prevent lithium from undergoing a Bose-Einstein condensation, the paradigm of all quantum statistical phase transitions. In 1995, however, Hulet and his group succeeded in coaxing a gas of magnetically confined Li atoms to Bose condense. Subsequent investigation of this novel system has lead to the direct observation of condensate growth and collapse. This work is sure to alter the way in which we think about weakly interacting Bose gases.

Links Nanotechnology and Quantum Mechanics by Geon Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) are movable devices manufactured on semiconductors using the same techniques used to make computer chips. They are very small (the smallest separations between their parts are on the order of micrometers). So far, classical mechanics has done a good job of guiding the design of these devices. However, in an article (subscription required for access) in the March 9, 2001 edition of Science, H. B. Chan, V. A. Aksyuk, R. N. Kleiman, D. J. Bishop, and Federico Capasso experimentally demonstrated that quantum effects become significant at such size scales. Some background information may be useful, before describing the experiment. Quantum electrodynamics (the part of quantum theory dealing with electromagnetic phenomena) predicts that empty space isn't really empty, so that there is no such thing as a perfect vacuum. Even in a vacuum, and even at a temperature of absolute zero, all kinds of particles pop in and out of existence as a consequence of the famous Uncertainty Principle of quantum mechanics. These particles pop into existence (in particle-antiparticle pairs), hang around for a little while, but must then must disappear again. How long they can hang around depends on how heavy the particles are the heavier the particles, the faster they must disappear, but even light particles can hang around for very short periods of time. These particles are called virtual particles, because they normally can't be directly detected - you might say they

Quantum mechanics From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Quantum mechanics is a physical theory that describes the behavior of physical systems at short distances Quantum mechanics provides a mathematical framework derived from a small set of basic principles capable of producing experimental predictions for three types of phenomena that classical mechanics and classical electrodynamics cannot account for: quantization wave-particle duality , and quantum entanglement . The related terms quantum physics and quantum theory are sometimes used as synonyms of quantum mechanics, but also to denote a superset of theories, including pre-quantum mechanics old quantum theory (see #History ), or, when the term quantum mechanics is used in a more restricted sense, to include theories like quantum field theory Quantum mechanics is the underlying theory of many fields of physics and chemistry , including condensed matter physics quantum chemistry , and particle physics Table of contents 1 Quantization 2 Wave-particle duality 3 Quantum entanglement 4 Description of the theory ... edit Quantization Main article: Quantization (physics) Quantization is the taking of discrete rather than continuous values for some physical quantities (e.g. the total

Classical mechanics From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Classical mechanics is the physics of forces , acting upon bodies. It is often referred to as " Newtonian mechanics " after Newton and his laws of motion . Classical mechanics is subdivided into statics (which deals with objects at rest) and dynamics (which deals with objects in motion). See also mechanics Classical mechanics produces very accurate results within the domain of everyday experience. It is superseded by relativistic mechanics for systems moving at large velocities near the speed of light, quantum mechanics for systems at small distance scales, and relativistic quantum field theory for systems with both properties. Nevertheless, classical mechanics is still very useful, because (i) it is much simpler and easier to apply than these other theories, and (ii) it has a very large range of approximate validity. Classical mechanics can be used to describe the motion of human-sized objects (such as tops and baseballs ), many astronomical objects (such as planets and galaxies ), and even certain microscopic objects (such as organic

Modern Physics Quantum Physics Quantum Mechanics General Quantum Mechanics Quantum Mechanics Quantum mechanics is the description of motion and interaction of particles at the small scales where the discrete nature of the physical world becomes important. Quantum mechanics represented a fundamental break with classical physics , in which energies and angular momenta were regarded as continuous quantities that could change by arbitrary amounts. The first break with classical physics was performed by Planck who, in order to explain the observed spectrum of a blackbody, was forced to postulate that the oscillators in a blackbody could attain only certain quantized energies. Niels Bohr had a large influence on the development of quantum mechanics through his so-called " Copenhagen Interpretation ," a philosophical construct which was formulated to provide a fundamental framework for understanding the implicit assumptions, limitations, and applicability of the theory of quantum mechanics. Einstein subsequently postulated that electromagnetic radiation could exist only in discrete units, called

57. Theory: Quantum Mechanics Theory Quantum mechanics. Quantum mechanics is the description of physics atthe scale of atoms, and the even smaller scales of fundamental particles. http://www2.slac.stanford.edu/vvc/theory/quantum.html

Quantum Mechanics Quantum mechanics is the description of physics at the scale of atoms, and the even smaller scales of fundamental particles. Quantum theory is the language of all particle theories. It is formulated in a well-defined mathematical language. It makes predictions for the relative probabilities of the various possible outcomes, but not for which outcome will occur in any given case. Interpretation of the calculations, in words and images, often leads to statements that seem to defy common sense because our common sense is based on experience at scales insensitive to these types of quantum peculiarities. Because we do not directly experience objects on this scale, many aspects of quantum behavior seem strange and even paradoxical to us. Physicists worked hard to find alternative theories that could remove these peculiarities, but to no avail. The word quantum means a definite but small amount. The basic quantum constant h , known as Planck's constant , is 6.626069 x 10
