Rövid leírás:

Ultracold Quantum Fields provides a self-contained introduction to quantum field theory for many-particle systems, using functional methods throughout. The general focus is on the behaviour of so-called quantum fluids, i.e., quantum gases and liquids, but trapped atomic gases are always used as an example. Both equilibrium and non-equilibrium phenomena are considered. Firstly, in the equilibrium case, the appropriate Hartree-Fock theory for the properties of a quantum fluid in the normal phase is derived. The focus then turns to the properties in the superfluid phase, and the authors present a microscopic derivation of the Bogoliubov theory of Bose-Einstein condensation and the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer theory of superconductivity. The former is applicable to trapped bosonic gases such as rubidium, lithium, sodium and hydrogen, and the latter in particular to the fermionic isotope of atomic lithium. In the non-equilibrium case, a few topics are discussed for which a field-theoretical approach is especially suited. Examples are the macroscopic quantum tunnelling of a Bose-Einstein condensate, the phase dynamics of bosonic and fermionic superfluids, and their collisionless collective modes.



The book is based upon the notes for a lecture course in the masters programme in Theoretical Physics at Utrecht.

On June 19th 1999, the European Ministers of Education signed the Bologna Dec laration, with which they agreed that the European university education should be uniformized throughout Europe and based on the two cycle bachelor master?s sys tem. The Institute for Theoretical Physics at Utrecht University quickly responded to this new challenge and created an international master?s programme in Theoret ical Physics which started running in the summer of 2000. At present, the master?s programme is a so called prestige master at Utrecht University, and it aims at train ing motivated students to become sophisticated researchers in theoretical physics. The programme is built on the philosophy that modern theoretical physics is guided by universal principles that can be applied to any sub?eld of physics. As a result, the basis of the master?s programme consists of the obligatory courses Statistical Field Theory and Quantum Field Theory. These focus in particular on the general concepts of quantum ?eld theory, rather than on the wide variety of possible applica tions. These applications are left to optional courses that build upon the ?rm concep tual basis given in the obligatory courses. The subjects of these optional courses in clude, for instance, Strongly Correlated Electrons, Spintronics, Bose Einstein Con densation, The Standard Model, Cosmology, and String Theory.

From the reviews:

?The book offers a substantial and self-consistent introduction into this exciting and challenging subject of present day research. ? Important items in basic quantum theory ? fine and hyperfine spectral structure, are presented in a new way. ? Most appreciable in this essentially theoretical text is the continuous correspondence with events from the laboratories: actually by the extended bibliography laboratories get very close to the reader.? (Bassano Vacchini, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1177, 2010)

?The book has evidently been put together with great care and is very well written. It provides detailed textual explanations to guide the reader through the equations, and includes the intermediate steps in derivations. ? found friendly and understandable by students including, in many cases, senior undergraduates. ? It is pleasure to commend it warmly to those entering, teaching or working in the burgeoning field of ultracold atomic gases as well as in many-particle physics more generally.? (Peter V. E. McClintock, Contemporary Physics, Vol. 52 (2), 2011)
