Welcome to the quantum world, where the physics of infinitesimally small particles are dominated by probability over certainty. Where mathematics and philosophy collide, quantum mechanics is considered one of the hardest yet quintessential fields in physics. From Planck to Schrödinger to Heisenberg, the nature of subatomic particles is dictated by quantum physics. The Theory of Physics, Vol. 4 not only offers a mathematical introduction, but also a tour of the noteworthy aspects of quantum mechanics, both non-relativistic and relativistic. This book, intended for physics students and science enthusiasts alike, delves into the realm of quantum mechanics; touching topics such as the Schrödinger Equation, the hydrogen atom, the Dirac Equation and an introduction to quantum gravity. The book also assumes readers are familiar with the first three volumes of The Theory of Physics and multi-variable calculus.

What if there is structure amongst chaos? Here we delve into the realm of thermodynamics and statistical mechanics, where the motions of particles in a gas are dictated by probability, entropy, and temperature. From Boltzmann to Liouville, from Maxwell to Einstein and Dirac, statistical mechanics is a topic of physics that kept up with the changing times without losing its significance to the physics of gases. The Theory of Physics, Vol. 5 not only offers a mathematical introduction, but also an overview of the main considerations and cornerstones of thermodynamics and statistical mechanics, both nonrelativistic and relativistic, both classical and quantum. This book, intended for physics students and science enthusiasts alike, delves into the general overview and select applications of statistical mechanics. Select topics include, but are not limited to, the Liouville Theorem, relativistic kinetic theory, white dwarf stars, quark-gluon plasma, and an introduction to non-equilibrium noise. The book also assumes readers are familiar with the first four volumes of The Theory of Physics and mathematical statistics.

Thousands of years ago, ancient civilizations once called natural phenomena divine intervention. But the philosophical thinkers approached myth with logic, and from this scientific discovery was born. From Archimedes to Galileo to Newton, nature was described by classical mechanics: a branch of physics involving linear and rotational motion, force, energy and momentum. This book, intended for physics students and science enthusiasts alike, delves into the realm of classical mechanics; touching topics such as gravitation, calculus of variations, oscillations and waves. The book also assumes readers are familiar with introductory calculus (derivatives and integrals).

Physics at the speed of light, a different look on gravity, and delving into the quantum word. The Theory of Physics, Vol. 3 considers Albert Einstein's special and general theories of relativity, along with black holes and the quest for quantum gravity. The book will also cover the origins of quantum mechanics, from Planck's work on blackbody radiation and wave-particle duality. This book, intended for physics students and science enthusiasts alike, discusses on select topics of modern physics, such as relativity, astrophysics, thermodynamics and introductory quantum mechanics. The book also assumes readers are familiar with the first two volumes of The Theory of Physics and have experience with calculus.

The Theory of Physics, Vol. 2 transitions from the physics involving masses to the physics involving charges. On this book on electromagnetism, electrostatics and magnetism are deeply analyzed before morphing them together, uncovering the fundamental nature of light. This book, intended for physics students and science enthusiasts alike, delves into the works of Coulomb, Gauss, Ampere and Maxwell. The book also assumes readers are familiar with The Theory of Physics, Vol. 1 and multi-dimensional calculus (i.e. polar and spherical coordinates).
