Ebook: The Relativistic Nuclear Many-Body Problem

Volume 16 comprises a single comprehensive monograph: The Relativistic Nuclear Many-Body Problem by Brian D. Serot and John Dirk Walecka. Sections within the monograph explore important aspects of relativistic baryons, nuclear models, relativistic Hartree descriptions of nuclei, quantum hadrodynamics, the dynamical quantum vacuum, charged mesons, relativistic pion dynamics, two-nucleon correlations, electroweak interactions with nuclei, and quantum chromodynamics. The Appendices cover notation and conventions, dimensional regularization, path-integral derivation of Feynman rules, and the Feynman rules in local gauge theories. Thorough in its coverage of the subject, this monograph will be valuable to those involved in nuclear physics, high-energy physics, and theoretical physics. J. W. Negele, E. Vogt
