Nonequilibrium quantum fields from first principles
Calculations of nonequilibrium processes become more and more possible in quantum field theory from first principles. There has been important progress in our analytical understanding based on 2PI generating functionals. In addition, for the first time direct lattice simulations based on stochastic quantization techniques have been achieved. The quantitative descriptions of characteristic far-f...
متن کاملQuantum Field Theory from First Principles
When quantum fields are studied on manifolds with boundary, the corresponding one-loop quantum theory for bosonic gauge fields with linear covariant gauges needs the assignment of suitable boundary conditions for elliptic differential operators of Laplace type. There are however deep reasons to modify such a scheme and allow for pseudo-differential boundary-value problems. When the boundary ope...
متن کاملNonequilibrium Quantum Scalar Fields in Cosmology
We elaborate further the functional Schrödinger-picture approach to the quantum field in curved spacetimes using the generalized invariant method and construct explicitly the Fock space, which we relate with the thermal field theory. We apply the method to a free massive scalar field in the de Sitter spacetime, and find the exact quantum states, construct the Fock space, and evaluate the two-po...
متن کاملNonequilibrium Dynamics of Relativistic Quantum Fields
The understanding of quantal many-body systems is a challenging task for far-from-equilibrium conditions as appearing in high energy heavy-ion collisions or cosmological problems. It is of relevance to describe ab-initio thermalization by taking into account all quantum aspects of the particles rather than invoking semi-classical approximation schemes from the beginning [1, 2]. We here consider...
متن کاملDislocation core energies and core fields from first principles.
Ab initio calculations in bcc iron show that a 111 screw dislocation induces a short-range dilatation field in addition to the Volterra elastic field. This core field is modeled in anisotropic elastic theory using force dipoles. The elastic modeling thus better reproduces the atom displacements observed in ab initio calculations. Including this core field in the computation of the elastic energ...
