商品描述

Classical mechanics is the basis for any university-level study of technical-scientific disciplines. But most existing manuals use a technological and engineering approach, with basic aspects sometimes insufficiently highlighted. This book introduces the concepts and applications of classical mechanics into Newtonian formalism. Newtonian dynamics is useful for solving applied physics and engineering problems, but also a fascinating theory anchored in questions posed since the times of the Greek philosophers, regarding space, the flow of time, measurable physical quantities, the physical principles with the mathematical structure needed to describe the Universe, etc. The author aims to encourage students to think about these fundamental aspects and how they will be addressed in modern physics, including the successes and limitations of Newton's mechanics. The book is designed to mirror the progress of the students using it, with earlier chapters assuming nomore than basic high school instruction and later ones geared toward subsequent enhanced understanding. The book is designed for students of undergraduate programs in physics, mathematics, chemistry, and engineering who will deal with modern physics, as they will benefit from an approach in which the aspects of classical mechanics are introduced in a propaedeutic approach towards relativistic physics and quantum mechanics.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

古典力學是任何大學級科技科學學科研究的基礎。但大多數現有的教材都採用技術和工程方法，有時基本概念不夠突出。本書將古典力學的概念和應用引入牛頓形式主義。牛頓動力學對於解決應用物理和工程問題非常有用，同時也是一個迷人的理論，與希臘哲學家提出的有關空間、時間流動、可測量的物理量、描述宇宙所需的物理原則和數學結構等問題密切相關。作者旨在鼓勵學生思考這些基本問題以及它們在現代物理學中的處理方式，包括牛頓力學的成功和局限性。本書的設計旨在與使用者的學習進度相呼應，前幾章假設只有基礎的高中教育，後面的章節則針對進一步的理解進行了調整。本書適用於物理、數學、化學和工程等本科課程的學生，他們將接觸到現代物理學，因此從古典力學的角度引入相對論物理學和量子力學的方法對他們非常有益。

作者簡介

Maurizio Spurio's research activity is mainly in astroparticle physics using neutrinos and cosmic rays in a multimessenger approach. He has published more than 230 papers in referred journals. Since 2014, he has served as the deputy spokesman of the ANTARES experiment, an international collaboration for neutrino astrophysics. The detector was in operation from 2008 to 2022 and located in the Mediterranean Sea. At present, he is participating in the activities for the realization of the KM3NeT neutrino telescope. Previously, he was a member of the MACRO collaboration at the Gran Sasso Labs and contributed significantly to the first studies of atmospheric neutrino oscillations. He contributed to develop a nuclear track detector, used for physics application and to search for magnetic monopoles, also at LHC. Finally, since 2022, he has been a member of the Einstein Telescope Collaboration, for the construction of a new generation of gravitational wave interferometer.
