Synopses & Reviews
Several significant additions have been made to the second edition, including the operator method of calculating the bremsstrahlung cross-section, the calcualtion of the probabilities of photon-induced pair production and photon decay in a magnetic
field, the asymptotic form of the scattering amplitudes at high energies, inelastic scattering of electrons by hadrons, and the transformation of electron-positron pairs into hadrons.
Review
'The treatment is thorough.. it is careful without being pedantic; and it is well supplied with applications to experimental situations...excellent value.'
