  • More about Foundations of Molecular Quantum Electrodynamics

This book provides a comprehensive overview of molecular quantum electrodynamics, covering classical electrodynamics, quantum mechanics, and non-relativistic quantum electrodynamics. It is ideal for graduate students and researchers in chemical and molecular physics, quantum chemistry, and theoretical chemistry.

Format: Hardback
Length: 550 pages
Publication date: 15 September 2022
Publisher: Cambridge University Press


This comprehensive book delves into the realm of molecular quantum electrodynamics, offering a multi-faceted exploration from the perspectives of physics and theoretical chemistry. The first part of the book establishes the fundamental concepts underlying classical electrodynamics, employing the tools of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics. It lays the groundwork for understanding the interplay between electric and magnetic fields in molecules and atoms.

The second part delves into the realm of quantum mechanics, specifically focusing on its relationship with and influence on chemical and molecular processes. It explores the intricate details of quantum mechanics, including the Born-Oppenheimer approximation and the special case of the Coulomb Hamiltonian. This section provides a modern and up-to-date treatment of these crucial topics.

The final part of the book explores non-relativistic quantum electrodynamics, shedding light on its profound impact on our understanding of atoms and molecules. It delves into the Power-Zienau-Woolley (PZW) representations, discussing both perturbative and non-perturbative approaches to QED calculation. This section offers valuable insights into the theoretical framework and computational methods employed in this field.

Designed with graduate students and researchers in chemical and molecular physics, quantum chemistry, and theoretical chemistry in mind, this book provides a thorough and in-depth exploration of molecular quantum electrodynamics. It offers a solid foundation for those seeking to advance their knowledge in this dynamic and rapidly evolving area of research.
