OverviewQuantum Electrodynamics is a thorough introductory text providing all necessary mathematical tools together with many examples and worked problems. In their presentation of the subject the authors adopt a heuristic approach based on the propagator formalism. The latter is introduced in the first two chapters in both its nonrelativistic and relativistic versions. Subsequently, a large number of scattering and radiation processes involving electrons, positrons, and photons are introduced and their theoretical treatment is presented in great detail. Higher order processes and renormalization are also included. The book concludes with a discussion of two-particle states and the interaction of spinless bosons. In addition, quantum electrodynamics of strong fields is presented. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Walter Greiner , Joachim ReinhardtPublisher: Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co.
