Book Description
A system of N non-relativistic classical particles interacting with pair potentials is described by a Hamiltonian of the form (0.0.1) This Hamiltonian generates a flow ¢(t) on the phase space JR3N x JR3N. An analogous system of N quantum particles is described by a Hamiltonian of the form N 1 H := -L -Llj + L \lij(Xi - Xj)' (0.0.2) j=l 2mj l$i

Scattering Theory of Classical and Quantum N-Particle Systems
Author: Jan Derezinski
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3662034034
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 448
Book Description
This monograph addresses researchers and students. It is a modern presentation of time-dependent methods for studying problems of scattering theory in the classical and quantum mechanics of N-particle systems. Particular attention is paid to long-range potentials. For a large class of interactions the existence of the asymptotic velocity and the asymptotic completeness of the wave operators is shown. The book is self-contained and explains in detail concepts that deepen the understanding. As a special feature of the book, the beautiful analogy between classical and quantum scattering theory (e.g., for N-body Hamiltonians) is presented with deep insight into the physical and mathematical problems.

Scattering Theory: Some Old and New Problems
Author: Dmitri R. Yafaev
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3540451706
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
Scattering theory is, roughly speaking, perturbation theory of self-adjoint operators on the (absolutely) continuous spectrum. It has its origin in mathematical problems of quantum mechanics and is intimately related to the theory of partial differential equations. Some recently solved problems, such as asymptotic completeness for the Schrödinger operator with long-range and multiparticle potentials, as well as open problems, are discussed. Potentials for which asymptotic completeness is violated are also constructed. This corresponds to a new class of asymptotic solutions of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation. Special attention is paid to the properties of the scattering matrix, which is the main observable of the theory. The book is addressed to readers interested in a deeper study of the subject.

ISBN: 3540332103
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 484
Book Description
First published in 1983, this book has become a classic among advanced textbooks. The new fourth edition maintains the high standard of its predecessors. The book offers basic knowledge of field theory and particle phenomenology. The author presents the basic facts of quark and gluon physics in pedagogical form. Explanations of theory are supported throughout with experimental findings. The text provides readers with sufficient understanding to follow modern research articles.

CPT Invariance and the Spin-statistics Connection
Author: Jonathan Bain
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0198728808
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 203
Book Description
This is a book on the philosophy of quantum field theory dealing with the question "What explains CPT invariance and the spin-statistics connection?" These properties play foundational roles in relativistic quantum field theories and figure into explanations of a wide range of phenomena, from antimatter, to the periodic table, to superfluids.

Fields, Symmetries, and Quarks
Author: Ulrich Mosel
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3662038412
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 301
Book Description
This revised and extended edition of the book Fields, Symmetries, and Quarks, originally published by McGraw-Hill Book Company, Hamburg, 1989, contains a new chapter on electroweak interactions which has also grown out of lectures that I have given in the meantime. In addition, a number of changes, mainly in the metric used, in the discussion of the theory of strong interactions, QCD, and in the chapter on hadron physics, have been made and errors have been corrected. The motivation for this book, however, is still the same as it was 10 years ago: This is a book on quantum field theory and our present understanding of leptons and hadrons for advanced students and the non-specialists and, in particular, the experimentalists working on problems of nuclear and hadron physics. I am grateful to Dr. S. Leupold for a very careful reading of the revised manuscript, many corrections, and helpful suggestions and to C. Traxler for producing the figures and for constructive discussions.

The Statistical Mechanics of Financial Markets
Author: Johannes Voit
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3662044234
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
A careful examination of the interaction between physics and finance. It takes a look at the 100-year-long history of co-operation between the two fields and goes on to provide new research results on capital markets - taken from the field of statistical physics. The random walk model, well known in physics, is one good example of where the two disciplines meet. In the world of finance it is the basic model upon which the Black-Scholes theory of option pricing and hedging has been built. The underlying assumptions are discussed using empirical financial data and analogies to physical models such as fluid flows, turbulence, or superdiffusion. On this basis, new theories of derivative pricing and risk control can be formulated.
