Notes on the lecture given by Paul A. M. Dirac concerning his preference for geometry, methods of geometry, and diagrams illustrating basic geometric concepts.
Theological lecture given by Paul A. M. Dirac stating that God and the Big Bang must be one and the same, as well as describing mathematics as a way of understanding not only physics, but God's laws.
Handwritten notes on the 1976 Lindau Nobel Laureate lecture in which Dirac explains the prejudices and biases that physicists must face. The lecture also covers theological issues, such as whether or not there is a God.
Notes from the lecture given in Edinburgh, Scotland by Paul A. M. Dirac concerning where quantum mechanics originated and how the idea of antimatter spread among physicists.
Lecture given by Paul A. M. Dirac at the Lindau Nobel Laureate Conference concerning the basis of quantum mechanics and the recent problems quantum theory faced.
Relativistic quantum mechanical wave equation formulated by Paul A.M. Dirac in 1928, taken from the blackboard of his former office in the Keen Building on Florida State University's campus. Equation is shown in frame.
Notes on the principles of quantum mechanics. Chapter 1 covers the principles of superposition including waves and particles, the polarization of photons, and the compatibility of observations.
Succession of 10 pages with work related to a problem involving a particular algebraic structure (with elements, operations, identities, etc. Final page is an unrelated physics calculation.
Notes on the lecture which Paul A. M. Dirac presented at the University of Cambridge. The lecture discusses the Bohr-Summerfeld theory, the Heisenberg principle, and Dirac's own equation.
Notes on quantum mechanics written by Paul A. M. Dirac. The preface includes a brief explanation on the need for the newer concept of quantum mechanics, the difficulties in this field of science, and discussion of Dirac's own theory....
Lecture given by Paul A. M. Dirac at two different conferences in Paris, France on December 16 and 23, 1930. Lecture introduces the new idea of quantum physics and explaining the major differences between that and the older, more ...
Lecture given in New Orleans, Louisiana by Paul A. M. Dirac explaining why he studies physics and how he came upon the formulation of his own Dirac Equation.
Notes on the lecture given by Paul A. M. Dirac addressing the fundamental problems in quantum theory; such as causality, and continuity in space and time.
Notes written by Paul A. M. Dirac on the principles of quantum mechanics. Chapter two discusses symbolic algebra of states and observables, including the addition of states, the multiplication of states, the algebra of observables, the...
Notes on the lecture which Paul A. M. Dirac gave in Canberra, Australia. This lecture explains how physicists make new theories and, thus, how physicists came across the issue of antimatter.
