Introduction To Quantum Field Theory
Author: Shau-jin Chang Series: World Scientific Lecture Notes In Physics
PRODUCT INFORMATION
Description
This book presents in a short volume the basics of quantum field theory and many body physics. The first part introduces the perturbative techniques without sophisticated apparatus and applies them to numerous problems including quantum electrodynamics (renormalization), Fermi and Bose gases, the Brueckner theory of nuclear system, liquid Helium and classical systems with noise. The material is clear, illustrative and the important points are stressed to help the reader get the understanding of what is crucial without overwhelming him with unnecessary detours or comments. The material in the second part ranges from variational principles to path integrals, discusses gauge theory, the renormalization group and classical solutions together with their applications.
Critic Reviews
"...will appeal to anyone wishing to get an excellent introduction to one of the most important and basic methods of modern physics -- presented by an expert and should be useful to a broad audience of physicists and students." C Itzykson (CEN-Saclay)
