โœฆ Synopsis


A form of classical electrodynamic field exists which gives exact

. agreement with the operator field of quantum electrodynamics QED for the Lamb shift of a harmonically bound point electron. Here it is pointed out that this form of classical theory, with its physically acceptable interpretation, is the result of an unconventional resolution of a mathematically ambiguous term in classical field theory. Finally, a quantum classical correspondence principle is shown to exist in the sense that the classical field and expectation value of the QED operator field are identical, if retardation is neglected in the latter.

Quantum field theory is frequently approached from the perspective of particle physics. This book adopts a more general point of view and includes applications of condensed matter physics. Written by a highly respected writer and researcher, it first develops traditional concepts, including Feynman

We study the model of two interacting particles moving in a 1D box, paying main attention to the quantum-classical correspondence for the average shape of quantum eigenstates and for the local density of states (LDOS). We show that if the classical motion is chaotic, in a deep semi-classical region
