Quantum kinetic theory

Více o knize

This book comnines detailed presentation of the basic material using easy to understand density operator methods (Quantum BBGKY-hierarchy); advanced applications to ultrafast relaxation processes (motivated by modern developments in femtosecond lasers) and detailed analysis of the interaction of charged particles with electomagnetic fields; compact and coprehensive presentation of nonequilibrium Green´s functions, starting from relativistic systems (QED), and detailed comparison to density operators; discussion of Molecular dynamic methods in nonequilibrium and of its relation to quantum knietics; state of the art numericsl results to all subjects, supplemented with a detailed appemdix devoted to numerical methods in quantum kinetics; extensive references, both to classical works on knietic theory and to modern applications in various field.
