Foundations of Quantum Field Theory
類似書籍推薦給您
Based on a two-semester course held at the University of Heidelberg, Germany, this book provides an adequate resource for the lecturer and the student. The contents are primarily aimed at graduate students who wish to learn about the fundamental concepts behind constructing a Relativistic Quantum Theory of particles and fields. So it provides a comprehensive foundation for the extension to Quantum Chromodynamics and Weak Interactions, that are not included in this book.
Contents:
The Principles of Quantum Physics
Lorentz Group and Hilbert Space
Search for a Relativistic Wave Equation
The Dirac Equation
The Free Maxwell Field
Quantum Mechanics of Dirac Particles
Second Quantization
Canonical Quantization
Global Symmetries and Conservation Laws
The Scattering Matrix
Perturbation Theory
Parametric Representation of a General Diagram
Functional Methods
Dyson–Schwinger Equation
Regularization of Feynman Diagrams
Renormalization
Broken Scale Invariance and Callan–Symanzik Equation

Modern Foundations of Quantum Optics
類似書籍推薦給您
This textbook offers a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the basic ideas in modern quantum optics, beginning with a review of the whole of optics, and culminating in the quantum description of light. The book emphasizes the phenomenon of interference as the key to understanding the behavior of light, and discusses distinctions between the classical and quantum nature of light. Laser operation is reviewed at great length and many applications are covered, such as laser cooling, Bose condensation and the basics of quantum information and teleportation. Quantum mechanics is introduced in detail using the Dirac notation, which is explained from first principles. In addition, a number of non-standard topics are covered such as the impossibility of a light-based Maxwell's demon, the derivation of the Second Law of thermodynamics from the first-order time-dependent quantum perturbation theory, and the concept of Berry's phase. The book emphasizes the physical basics much more than the formal mathematical side, and is ideal for a first, yet in-depth, introduction to the subject. Five sets of problems with solutions are included to further aid understanding of the subject.
