More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
This primer provides a systematic and rigorous introduction to the spectra and electronic structure of atoms, beginning with the hydrogen atom, and following a logical progression through the alkali metals, and the helium atom, to atoms with many unpaired electrons. Emphasis is placed on the explanation of the observed spectra using elementary quantum theory.
About the Author

Format:Paperback
Softley has produced a concise well-written introduction to the field suitable for the undergraduate student and beyond. All the essential elements of a first or second year chemistry course are discussed with a clarity of explanation rare in other books on this subject. Following a brief introduction to the quantum mechanical principles of spectroscopy subsequent chapters deal with the hydrogen atom, alkali metal atoms, before moving on to the helium atom and many electron atoms in logical preogression. Illustrative examples at the end of each chapter allow the student to test his/her progress. This is a book which students of all abilities find accessible and useful and has rapidly become the choice text for atomic spectroscopy courses.
