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, it is about appr 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 (@ = 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. Just a 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 bbe 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 Duffett-Smith, Wolf-Gerrit Frith, Martin Hendry, Rico Ignace, 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 Iegendary red pen hovered over (or descended upon) every equation in the book. What errors remain are, of course, my own, but I take comfort from the fact that without John they would be much more numerous, Contact information A website containing up-to-date information on this handbook and contact details can be found through the Cambridge University Press home pages at hitp://www.cup.org (North America) or http://www.cup.cam.ac.uk (United Kingdom). Production notes This book was typeset by the author in ISTEX 2¢ using the CUP Times fonts. The software packages used were WinEdt, MiKTEX, Mayura 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 point 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 find descriptions of all the variables used at the right-hand side of the panel, usually adjacent to the first 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/(160.218 x 10-)]- eV. A measurement of energy, U, with joule as the unit has a numerical value of U/J. The same measurement with electron volt as the unit has a numerical value of U/eV = (U/J):(J/eV) and so on. 4 Units, constants, and conversions 1.2 SI units 5 | 1.2 SI units SI base units SEprefixes Physical quantity name symbol Factor prefix symbol | factor prefix symbol length metre =m 10% —yotta.-¥ 107 yocto -y maa kilogram kg 17 zeta, Z 10 Zepto z time second 8 1" eB 10" ato a | electric current ampere A 10 peta PP 10 femto f thermodynamic temperature kelvin = K 10? tera TT 10"? pico p amount of substance mole mol 10° gisa GG 10° nano on luminous intensit candela od mega M 10-6 micro Hy TO kilo k 10% milli, om hecto 107 centi_ | - deca® da lo! decid | ‘SI derived wi SQrdkaOOOSOC~=~—“—SsSSCststs‘CSCS*S*SSS | physical quantity name symbol equivalent units electric capacitance farad F cv"! electric charge coulomb c . . electric conductance siemens s Recognised non-SI_ units electric potential difference volt v Physical quantity — name ‘symbol ST value electric resistance ohm a time minute min 60s energy, work, heat joule I hour h 3600s : force newton N day a 8640s | frequency hertz Hz Plane angle degree .

Although there is a high degree of consistency in accepted mathematical notation, there is some variation. For example the spherical harmonics, ¥/", can be written Yi,, 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. > Psi DEN eHAMVAS x Pi (x) to 1000 decimal places {31415926895 6975323846 2643385279 SODSRALITL 699957510 5820974944 $873078164 0628420099 BA2ETR4825 3421170679 s214s086st 5282305647 0938446095 5058223172 5359408128 4811174802 6410270193 85211055 6446229489 $493038196 429510875 6688534461 2847564823 STROTEDLES 2712019091 4554856692 340348610 4543266482 1335360726 O249141273 1245870066 0631558817 4861520920 9628292540 9171536436 7892530360 0113305305 4882046652 1384146951 9415116094 305727036 5759591959 0921861173 $193261179 3105118848 0744623799 6274956735 1885752724 8912279581 $301194912 5833673362 MOESG6430 8600135494 6995224737 1907021798 6094370277 0539217176 2981767523 S46T4SI846 7663405152 ooseaizri 4526386082 7785771342 7577896081 736S7L7E72 1468440901 7249524301 4654858597 1050792279 6892589285, 4201995611 2129021960 8540344181 5981362977 477130960 5187072113 4899999837 2978049951 0597317328 1605631889 san44souss 3469083006 4252230825 5344685035 2619511881 TIOIO00313 7838752886 5875332089 €142061717 1609147303 $962534904 2875546873 1159562863 8823597875 9375195778 1857780532 1712268066 1300192787 6611195909 2164201989 e to 1000 decimal places T araszarense 5904523536 0287471352 6624977572 4709360995 9574966967 6277240766 3035354759 4571382178 5251664274 “4ces93 2003059821 817439966 2908357290 OSSRED SBSENTEEL 323282794 HHOTEING BZSES07SE1 95210190 1sesa67 930702540 891493488 416707244 T4GDGED 226A0016 BATIIIESS 74248404 310753907 71992069 ssiyoaTet8 396263 184543000 752049538 26602976) 673IL3I0 TOSS28791 2144874704 7230696977 293101416 Sngssnonn 5515108657 46721112 S2389TRAD SOSEHSI696 TOTRSD SBE 4S4H05H87 931638882 308879212 “rT 44995295 1625148220 82695193 GSSSDIEDS 296539849 HES15E00S3929ED0 5979352096 25049117 S0Nr361970 e3ei6an39 7OLss7er9 320683283 THEO $911802528 T5DUHH19§$581530175 671736332 069812509 essies59 0616x381 S95885198 450727386 RESID TH2DSNR SPONSE? 519779610 4BsL98AS C346I2456 ‘sass e2s87715 7862320900 2160990235 38369948 <9LAGD1409 34SI7SBES G4OSHE2S3 520918369 O8HHTOTONS 158396045 TS14059271 4563549061 3031072085 10857505 OSTEO I7HR9S6IDG 679606852 1267154688 970850354 In particular: scalars unit vectors vector cross-product Laplacian operator partial derivatives nth derivative closed surface integral mean value (of x) factorial exponential constant natural logarithm general vectors scalar product gradient operator derivative derivative of r with respect to t closed loop integral matrix binomial coefficient unit imaginary (?=—1) modulus (of x) log to base 10 7 Mathematics 2.2 Vectors and matrices a 2.2 Vectors and matrices Common three-dimensional coordinate systems Vector algebra Scalar product® — @-b=|allb|c en) 5 * Vector product! a, a, @2) <) ry _: @ b (in) 3) (24) Product rules 5) (26) Tagrange’s on identity a party?
