The reader should not be misled by this exercise. Although the equations and formulas contained here underpin a good deal of physical science, they are useless unless the reader understands them. Learning physics is not about remembering equations, itis about appreci- ating the natural structures they express. Although its format should help make some topics clearer, this book is not designed to teach new physics; there are many excellent textbooks to help with that. It is intended to be useful rather than pedagogically complete, so that students can use it for revision and for structuring their knowledge once they understand the physics. More advanced users will benefit from having a compact, internally consistent, source of equations that can quickly deliver the relationship they require in a format that avoids the need to sift through pages of rubric. Some difficult decisions have had to be made to achieve this. First, to be short the ‘book only includes ideas that can be expressed succinctly in equations, without resorting to lengthy explanation. A small number of important topics are therefore absent. For example, Liouville’s theorem can be algebraically succinct (6 = 0) but is meaningless unless ¢ is thoroughly (and carefully) explained. Anyone who already understands what ¢ represents will probably not need reminding that it equals zero. Second, empirical equations with ‘numerical coefficients have been largely omitted, as have topics significantly more advanced than are found at undergraduate level. There are simply too many of these to be sensibly and confidently edited into a short handbook. Third, physical data are largely absent, although a periodic table, tables of physical constants, and data on the solar system are all included. Justa sighting of the marvellous (but dimensionally misnamed) CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics should be enough to convince the reader that a good science data book is thick. Inevitably there is personal choice in what should or should not be included, and you ‘may feel that an equation that meets the above criteria is missing. If this is the case, I would be delighted to hear from you so it can be considered for a subsequent edition. Contact details are at the end of this preface. Likewise if you spot an error or an inconsistency then please let me know and I will post an erratum on the web page.Acknowledgments This venture is founded on the generosity of colleagues in Glasgow and ‘Cambridge whose inputs have strongly influenced the final product. The expertise of Dave Clarke, Declan Diver, Peter Duflett-Smith, Wolf-Gerrit Frith, Martin Hendry, Rico Tgnace, David Ireland, John Simmons, and Harry Ward have been central to its production, as have the linguistic skills of Katie Lowe. I would also like to thank Richard Barrett, Matthew Cartmell, Steve Gull, Martin Hendry, Jim Hough, Darren McDonald, and Ken Riley who all agreed to field-test the book and gave invaluable feedback, ‘My greatest thanks though are to John Shakeshaft who, with remarkable knowledge and skill, worked through the entire manuscript more than once during its production and whose legendary red pen hovered over (or descended upon) every equation in the book. What errors remain are, of course, may own, but I take comfort from the fact that without John they ‘would be much more numerous.

Production notes This book was typeset by the author in ISTpX 2, using the CUP Times fonts. The software packages used were WinEdt, MK TEX, Mayua Draw, Gnuplot, Ghostscript, Ghostview, and Maple V.How to use this book The format is largely self-explanatory, but a few comments may be helpful. Although it is very tempting to flick through the pages to find what you are looking for, the best starting ppoint is the index. I have tried to make this as extensive as possible, and many equations are indexed more than once. Equations are listed both with their equation number (in square brackets) and the page on which they can be found. The equations themselves are grouped into self-contained and boxed “panels” on the pages. Each panel represents a separate topic, ‘and you will fiad descriptions of all the variables used at the right-hand side of the panel, usually adjacent to the fist equation in which they are used. You should therefore not need to stray outside the panel to understand the notation. Both the panel as a whole and its individual entries may have footnotes, shown below the panel. Be aware of these, as they contain important additional information and conditions relevant to the topic. Although the panels are self-contained they may use concepts defined elsewhere in the handbook. Often these are cross-referenced, but again the index will help you to locate them if necessary. Notations and definitions are uniform over subject areas unless stated otherwise.Chapter 1 Units, constants, and conversions 1.1 Introduction The determination of physical constants and the definition of the units with which they are measured is a specialised and, to many, hidden branch of science. ‘A quantity with dimensions is one whose value must be expressed relative to one or more standard units. In the spirit of the rest of the book, this section is based around the International System of units (SI). This system uses seven base units (the number is somewhat arbitrary), such as the kilogram and the second, and defines their magnitudes in terms of physical laws or, in the case of the kilogram, an object called the “international prototype of the kilogram” kept in Paris. For convenience there are also a number of derived standards, such as the volt, which are defined as set combinations of the basic seven. Most of the physical observables we regard as being in some sense fundamental, such as the charge ‘on an electron, are now known to better than 1 part per million (ppm). The least well known is the Newtonian constant of gravitation (128 ppm) and the best the Rydberg constant (0.0012 ppm). The dimensionless electron g-factor, representing the magnetic moment of an electron measured in Bohr magnetons, has been determined to 1 part in 10" No matter which base units are used, physical quantities are expressed as the product of ‘a numerical value and a unit. These two components have more-or-less equal standing and can be manipulated by following the usual rules of algebra, So, if 1- eV = 160.218 x 10-*- J then 1 J = [1/(160218 x 10-)] - eV. A measurement of energy, U, with joule as the unit, hhas a numerical value of U/ J. The same measurement with electron volt as the unit has @ numerical value of U/eV = (U/1)(J/eV) and so on.4 Units, conscants, and conversions 1.2 SI units ‘SI base units Physical quantity name symbol length metre =m mass Kilogram kg time seconds electric current ampere A thermodynamic temperature kelvin = K amount of substance mole mol luminous inten candela od SI derived units physical quantity mame ‘Simba! equivalent waits electric capacitance farad F cv electric charge coulomb c As electric conductance siemens s ot clectric potential difference volt v Jet electric resistance ohm 2 vat energy, work, heat joule J Nm force newton N mkgs? frequency hertz Host illuminance lux bk odsem= inductance henry H vats Iuminous flux lumen Im cds magnetic ux weber Wo Vs magnetic lux density tesla 7 Ysm plane angle radian rd mor power, radiant flux watt sWattteec de pressure, stress pascal Poo Nm? radiation absorbed dose gray Gy Jkt radiation dose equivalent® _ sievert Sv (Jke“] radioactive activity becquerel = Bs solid angle steradian st mm? temperature? degree Celsius °C OK "To distinguish it rom the gray, unit of 2 he Ceisias temperature, To, is defined ftom the temperature in kelvin, Tx, by Te Ty ~ 273.6.1.2 SI units SI prefixes factor prefix symbol | factor 10 —yotta. -Y 10% zeta Z 10% exa E 10% peta P 10? tera so 10 sign G 10° mega M 10° kilo k 1? hecto bh 10° deca* da or deka Recognised non-SI units physical quantity name symbol SI value time minute min 60s hour h 3.6005 day d 864008 plane angle degree : (/180) rad minute ‘ (2/30 800) rad second .

For example the spherical harmonics, ¥/", can be written Yiy, and there is some freedom with their signs. In general, the conventions chosen here follow common practice as closely as possible, whilst maintaining consistency with the rest of the handbook.

Introduction Unusually in physics, there is no pithy phrase that sums up the study of dynamics (the way in which forces produce motion), kinematics (the motion of matter), mechanics (the study of the forees and the motion they produce), and statics (the way forces combine to produce equilibrium). We will take the phrase dynamics and mechanics to encompass all the above, although it clearly does not! To some extent this is because the equations governing the motion of matter include some of our oldest insights into the physical world and are consequentialy steeped in tradition One of the more delightful, or for some, annoying, facets of this is the occasional use of arcane vocabulary in the description of motion. The epitome must be what Goldstein! calls “the jabberwockian sounding statement” the polhode rolls without slipping on the herpolhode lying in the inoariable plane, describing “Poinsot’s construction” ~ a method of visualising the free motion of a spinning rigid body. Despite this, dynamics and mechanics, including uid mechanics, is arguably the most practically applicable of all the branches of physics Moreover, and in common with electromagnetism, the study of dynamics and mechanics has spawned a good deal of mathematical apparatus that has found uses in other fields. Most notably, the ideas behind the generalised dynamics of Lagrange and Hamilton lie behind much of quantum mechanics. HL Goldstein, Clasial Mechanics, od ed, 1980, Addison-Weley.“4 3.2.

Introduction ‘Quantum ideas occupy such a pivotal position in physics that different notations and algebras appropriate to each field have been developed. Inthe spirit of this book, only those formulas that are commonly present in undergraduate courses and that can be simply presented in [44 tabular form are included here. For example, much ofthe detail of atomic spectroscopy and of specific perturbation analyses has been omitted, as have ideas from the somewhat specialised field of quantum electrodynamics. Traditionally, quantum physics is understood through standard “toy” problems, such as the potential step and the one-dimensional harmonic oscillator, and these are reproduced here. Operators are distinguished from observables using the “hat” notation, so that the momenturh observable, ps, bas the operator Be=—ia/@x. For clarity, many relations tbat can be generalised to three dimensions in an obvious way hhave been stated in their one-dimensional form, and wavefunctions are implicitly taken as normalised functions of space and time unless otherwise stated. With the exception of the last pane, all equations should be taken as nonrelativistic, so that “total energy” is the sum of potential and kinetic energies, excluding the rest mass energy.20, Quantum phyjsies 42 Quantum definitions Quantum uncertainty relations A 4.1 De Broglie relation? 2 an pohk (42) Planck-Einstein a relation Di (44) dispersion” 45) (General unce aos General uncertainty (aap (asjta 5,6) (46) ‘Momentum-position i ‘uncertainty relation’ — 4P4*= > a) Energy-time he uncertainty relation — S24'= 3 48) ‘Number-phase 1 uncertainty relation "49> 3 (49) -P parle momentum pee P EE ab observabes* Planck constant ye) de Broglie wavelength de Broglie wavevestor came frequency angular frequency (=2nv) expectation vale Aisperson of a operator for observable a commutator (see page 26) particle postion ‘umber of photos wave phase ‘=Dispesion in quantum physics coresponde (0 variance in satis, "An observable ise irecly measurable parameter of a system. «Aloo known as the "Hetsenberg uacetaity relation” ‘Wavefunctions Probability b= olen?

Notation in these subjects ccan be confusing and the conventions used here are those found in the majority of modern ‘treatments. In particular ‘The internal energy of a system is defined in terms of the heat supplied zo the system plus the work done on the system, that is, dU=@Q+aW. The lowercase symbol p is used for pressure. Probability density functions are denoted by pr() and microstate probabilities by p, With the exception of specific intensity, quantities are taken as specific if they refer to unit ‘mass and are distinguished from the extensive equivalent by using lowercase. Hence specific volume, v, equals V/m, where V is the volume of gas and m its mass. Also, the specific heat capacity of a gas at constant pressure is cp=Cp/m, where Cp is the heat capacity of mass m of gas. Molar values take a subscript “m” (e, Yq for molar volume) and remain in upper case, ‘The component held constant during a partial differentiation is shown after a vertical bar; ence gl is the partial differential of volume with respect to pressure, holding temperature constant The thermal properties of solids are dealt with more explicitly in the section on solid state physics (page 123). Note that in solid state literature specific heat capacity is often taken to ‘mean heat capacity per unit volume.106 Thermodynamics woe Ther oyna 5.2 Classical thermodynamics Thermodynamic laws 7 tenmodjaani operate Thermodynamic im m icapaate Tec lim(pv) (5A) | sium of «Sed mas of sas P saspresure lim(pV)r K kelvin unit Kelvin Lim temperate sale T/R=276Cfpipyy, 62) | # seperti at 4 ehange i tera exergy First law? au=a9+aw (53) | aw work dae oa system (20, beat supplied to sytem experimental entropy Entropy® (54) | 7 temperature s_ reverie change ‘Thermodynamic work* ‘Sag Recmaiaed wih & gas themnometss The Wea of temperature ie associated with the zeroth Taw of ther- rmotynarsics” If two systems are in thermal equilibrium with a third they are aso in thermal equliorim with each ther The @ notation represents diferetil change in quantity that i not a function of state of the sytem.

Introduction The electromagnetic force is central to neatly every physical process around us and is a major component of classical physics. In fact, the development of electromagnetic theory in the nineteenth century gave us much mathematical machinery that we now apply quite generally in other fields, including potential theory, vector calculus, and the ideas of divergence and carl. Tt is therefore not surprising that this section deals with 2 large array of physical quantities and their relationships. As usual, SI units are assumed throughout. In the past clectromagnetism has suffered from the use of a variety of systems of units, including the ‘gs system in both its electrostatic (esu) and electromagnetic (emu) forms. The fog has now all bat cleared, but some specialised areas of research still cling to these historical measures. ‘Readers are advised to consult the section on unit conversion if they come across such exotica in the literature.

Optical ideas find their way into most wave-based branches of physics, from quantum mechanics to radio propagation. ‘Nowhere is the lack of convention more apparent than in the study of polarisation, and so a cautionary note follows. The conventions used here can-be taken largely from context, but the reader should be aware that alternative sign and handedness conventions do exist and are widely used. In particular we will take a circularly polarised wave as being right-handed if, for an observer looking towards the source, the electric field vector in a plane perpendicular to the line of sight rotates clockwise. This convention is often used in optics textbooks and has the conceptual advantage that the electric field orientation describes a right-hand corkscrew in space, with the direction of energy flow defining the screw direction. It is however opposite to the system widely used in radio engineering, where the handedness of a helical antenna generating or receiving the wave defines the handedness and is also in the opposite sense to the wave's own angular momentum vector.162 Optics 8.2 Interference Newton's rings* Taio of wh ag rth dark ring (8) |» iategerc20) R_leog radius of curvature webring 2e(o+8) nie @2)]* man medium "Viewed i raieoton Dielectric layers" m 1 {te mw URL eth single layer 427] 4 multilayer ns ' I-R mR i aio Quarte-wave a 3) |" (mz0 — — (asc) won| am mse (84) | eats ceractive condition na Single-layer reflectances 2 mon (ee) een Dependence of Xi (—1"(m—m—m)>9_— 5) Ron layer min if (-1)"(n—nXn2—m)<0 (8.6) thickness, m = R=0. if m=(mns)*? and m odd (87) ymulgerretecne : Number of aye pais Multilayer ~[ppnelne fag) | usr ine ofp reflectanee? mental oP toe rss index of tom lee Tes, wi "For mortal incidence, assuming tbe quarier-wave condition.

The following section includes many of the relationships that fall into neither of these categories, including equations to convert between various astronomical coordinate systems and some basic formulas associated with cosmology. Exceptionally, this section also includes data on the Sun, Earth, Moon, and planets, Observational astrophysics remains a largely inexact science, and parameters of these (and other) bodies are often used as approximate base units in measurements. For example, the masses of stars and galaxies are frequently quoted as multiples of the mass of the Sun (Mo = 1.989 > 10"kg), extra-solar system planets in terms of the mass of Jupiter, and so on. Astronomers seem to find it particularly difficult to drop arcane units and conventions, resulting in a profusion of measures and nomenclatures throughout the subject. However, the convention of using suitable astronomical objects in this way is both useful and widely accepted,176 Astrophysics 9.2 Solar system data Solar data ‘equatorial radius Re 6960 x10" m TO9IRS mass My = 19891x10%kg 3.32946%10°Mg polar moment of inertia.
