Essential Advanced Physics is a series comprising four parts: Classical Mechanics, Classical Electrodynamics, Quantum Mechanics and Statistical Mechanics. Each part consists of two volumes, Lecture notes and Problems with solutions, further supplemented by an additional collection of test problems and solutions available to qualifying university instructors. This volume contains detailed model solutions to the exercise problems formulated in the companion Lecture notes volume. In many cases, the solutions include result discussions that enhance the lecture material. For readers' convenience, the problem assignments are reproduced in this volume.
Konstantin K Likharev received his PhD from the Lomonosov Moscow State University in 1969 and a habilitation degree of Doctor of Sciences from the USSR's High Attestation Committee in 1979. From 1969 to 1990 Likharev was a staff scientist at Moscow State University. In 1991 he assumed a professorship at Stony Brook University, where he has been a Distinguished Professor since 2002 and a John S Toll Professor since 2017. He has authored more than 250 original publications, 80 review papers and book chapters, two monographs, and several patents. He is also a Fellow of the APS and IEEE.
