Quantum Kinetic Theory

Más información sobre el libro

Focusing on density operator methods and non-equilibrium Green functions, this book offers a thorough exploration of quantum kinetic theory. It rigorously addresses nonequilibrium dynamics in quantum many-body systems, particularly emphasizing ultrafast processes in plasmas, condensed matter, and trapped atoms. With the rise of short pulse lasers and free electron lasers, the text delves into non-Markovian quantum kinetic equations and their computational aspects, providing a robust theoretical framework for analyzing these advanced experimental techniques.
