Statistical Field Theory by H.T.C. Stoof

Small book cover: Statistical Field Theory

Statistical Field Theory
by

Publisher: Utrecht University
Number of pages: 66

Description:
We give a self-contained introduction to the quantum field theory for many-particle systems, using functional methods throughout. We focus in general on the behavior of so-called quantum liquids, i.e., quantum gases and liquids, but use as an explicit example always the trapped atomic gases that have recently become accesible experimentally.
