Features: 20 years of effort condensed into a single sword, the crystallization of collaboration from 30 senior professors, and the manifestation of spiritual brilliance from 150 outstanding talents. Physics Grand Problem Dictionary is the result of long-term collaborative effort by 30 senior professors of University of Science and Technology of China. This large-scale university physics problem-solving series originated from the renowned American Physics Problems and Solutions series in the field of Chinese physics. American Physics Problems and Solutions was the outcome of the CUSPEA project, primarily featuring solutions to entrance examination questions from prestigious American universities. The revision work spanned nearly two years. The series continues to cover all fundamental physics content, including mechanics, thermodynamics, optics, electricity, modern physics, and the "four great forces of mechanics." Additionally, it includes topics such as nuclear physics, particle physics, condensed matter physics, plasma physics, astrophysics, laser physics, quantum optics, and quantum information physics, broadly encompassing the full range of undergraduate physics courses in comprehensive universities. The revision incorporates recent examination questions from the United States, China, Russia, and other countries, with some problems derived from the research achievements of the editorial team. Physics Grand Problem Dictionary is guided by educational principles, emphasizing physics, interdisciplinary integration, and connection with research, making it rich in "contemporary relevance" and serving as a reference tool for physics faculty and students. Physics Grand Problem Dictionary is a large-scale, comprehensive physics problem-solving series. Its content covers the full range of undergraduate physics in comprehensive universities: from classical physics (mechanics, thermodynamics, optics, electricity, modern physics) to the "four great forces of mechanics," as well as nuclear physics, particle physics, condensed matter physics, plasma physics, astrophysics, laser physics, quantum optics, and quantum information. The content is up-to-date, emphasizing physics, interdisciplinary integration, and connection with research. The volume Atomic, Subatomic, and Relativistic Physics includes atomic and molecular physics, nuclear physics, particle physics, experimental methods and particle beams, relativity and its applications, etc. The series can serve as a learning guide for undergraduate physics majors, a reference for graduate entrance examinations, and a teaching resource for physics instructors in various higher education institutions.
