Finite Quantum Many-body Problem, The: Selected Papers Of Aage Bohr

Discover the groundbreaking work of Aage Bohr in "The Finite Quantum Many-body Problem: Selected Papers Of Aage Bohr," expertly edited by Ricardo Americo Broglia. Published in 2019 by World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd, this hardback edition spans 236 pages and delves into the revolutionary unification of the independent (shell) and collective (liquid drop) models of the atomic nucleus. Aage Bohr, a pivotal figure in nuclear physics, was instrumental in this unification, marking what is often referred to as the second discovery of the atomic nucleus. His efforts, alongside collaborator Ben Mottelson, earned them the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1975. This collection is essential for anyone interested in the foundations of modern physics and the intricate workings of atomic structures. Enhance your understanding of quantum many-body problems with this insightful compilation of Bohr's selected papers.
