Covering heat and mass transfer, wave theory acoustics, electrostatics, electrodynamics, diffraction theory, quantum mechanics, and more, this handbook presents brief formulations and exact solutions of more than 2,200 equations and problems of mathematical physics - more than any other book available. It also features a supplement that lists the properties of common special functions, including the gamma, Bessel, degenerate hypergeometric, and Mathieu functions. Another supplement describes the methods of generalized and functional separation of variables for nonlinear partial differential equations.
