#6 E-Books → Fusion: An Introduction to the Physics and Technology of Magnetic Confinement Fusion

This second edition of a popular textbook is thoroughly revised with around 25% new and updated content.
It provides an introduction to both plasma physics and fusion technology at a level that can be understood by advanced undergraduates and graduate students in the physical sciences and related engineering disciplines.
As such, the contents cover various plasma confinement concepts, the support technologies needed to confine the plasma, and the designs of ITER as well as future fusion reactors.
With end of chapter problems for use in courses.

#5 E-Books → Coleção do GREF/USP(Edições Revisadas)

O Grupo de Reelaboração do Ensino de Física, GREF, acaba de disponibilizar para download livre a segunda edição da obra Leituras de Física, revisada em 2007. A obra, que inclui a coleção de livros do professor, é produto de uma parceria entre o GREF e a Coordenadoria de Estudos e Normas Pedagógicas, CENP, órgão da Secretaria Estadual da Educação.
O material feito para os alunos pode ser usado livremente e está publicado em PDF no site da CENP: http://cenp.edunet.sp.gov.br/fisica/gref
Na coleção, diversos tópicos de Mecânica, Física Térmica, Óptica e Eletromagnetismo são tratados de forma a estimular o questionamento e o pensamento investigativo. Eles estão divididos em “leituras”, cada uma delas com quatro páginas, que compreendem abertura, investigação-estudo e complemento.
A revisão da obra aconteceu em dois níveis: a redação sofreu algumas mudanças, no sentido de se aproximar da linguagem dos alunos e, ao mesmo tempo, uma equipe de professores do grupo indicou atualizações técnicas.
“Por exemplo, no bloco que trata de Rotações, foram tirados os exemplos que usavam o toca-discos de vinil e as fitas K-7, pois esses aparelhos já estão fora das vivências cotidianas dos estudantes. Em seu lugar, foram inseridas outras experimentações simples, como a que questiona o funcionamento de cadeiras giratórias”, explica Luis Fábio Simões Pucci, integrante da Equipe Técnica de Física do CENP.

O GREF
O Grupo de Reelaboração do Ensino de Física reúne diversos professores da rede estadual de ensino de São Paulo que, sob a coordenação de docentes do Instituto de Física da USP, têm como objetivo elaborar uma proposta de ensino de Física para o ensino médio que esteja vinculada à experiência cotidiana dos alunos, procurando apresentar a eles a Física como um instrumento de melhor compreensão e atuação na realidade. O GREF iniciou seus trabalhos em 1984 e, além da publicação do Leituras em Física, atua, por meio de cursos e assessoria, na formação continuada de professores de Física.

#4 E-Books → Mathematical Methods for Physics and Engineering: A Comprehensive Guide


The third edition of this highly acclaimed undergraduate textbook is suitable for teaching all the mathematics for an undergraduate course in any of the physical sciences. As well as lucid descriptions of all the topics and many worked examples, it contains over 800 exercises. New stand-alone chapters give a systematic account of the 'special functions' of physical science, cover an extended range of practical applications of complex variables, and give an introduction to quantum operators. Further tabulations, of relevance in statistics and numerical integration, have been added. In this edition, half of the exercises are provided with hints and answers and, in a separate manual available to both students and their teachers, complete worked solutions. The remaining exercises have no hints, answers or worked solutions and can be used for unaided homework.

#3 E-Books → Mathematics for Physics : A Guided Tour for Graduate Students

An engagingly-written account of mathematical tools and ideas, this book provides a graduate-level introduction to the mathematics used in research in physics. The first half of the book focuses on the traditional mathematical methods of physics - differential and integral equations, Fourier series and the calculus of variations. The second half contains an introduction to more advanced subjects, including differential geometry, topology and complex variables. The authors' exposition avoids excess rigor whilst explaining subtle but important points often glossed over in more elementary texts. The topics are illustrated at every stage by carefully chosen examples, exercises and problems drawn from realistic physics settings. These make it useful both as a textbook in advanced courses and for self-study.

#2 E-Books → Computational Physics


Computional physics involves the use of computer calculations and simulations to solve physical problems. This book describes computational methods used in theoretical physics with emphasis on condensed matter applications. Coverage begins with an overview of the wide variety of topics and algorithmic approaches studied in this book. The next chapters concentrate on electronic structure calculations, presenting the Hartree-Fock and Density Functional formalisms, and band structure methods.

#1 E-Books → Conceptual Physics Package Edition

Conceptual Physics, Tenth Edition helps readers connect physics to their everyday experiences and the world around them with additional help on solving more mathematical problems. Hewitt's text is famous for engaging readers with analogies and imagery from real-world situations that build a strong conceptual understanding of physical principles ranging from classical mechanics to modern physics. With this strong foundation, readers are better equipped to understand the equations and formulas of physics, and motivated to explore the thought-provoking exercises and fun projects in each chapter. Included in the package is the workbook. Mechanics, Properties of Matter, Heat, Sound, Electricity and Magnetism, Light, Atomic and Nuclear Physics, Relativity. For all readers interested in conceptual physics.
