About The Book:
Quantum Theory of Many-Particle Systems by Alexander L. Fetter is an essential, self-contained textbook devoted to educating students and researchers in the field of nonrelativistic many-particle systems. It offers both formalism and practical applications, providing a comprehensive understanding of this complex area of theoretical physics.
The text begins with the ground-state (zero-temperature) formalism, which is developed through second quantization, statistical mechanics, Green’s functions, and field theory. It then explores various topics such as Fermi systems, linear response, collective modes, Bose systems, and finite-temperature formalism. Key concepts in field theory at finite temperature, real-time Green's functions, and linear response are also discussed in depth.
Applications of the theory are illustrated with real-world examples, including nuclear matter, phonons, electrons, superconductivity, superfluid helium, and finite systems. With 149 figures and 8 tables, the book presents a visual and systematic approach to understanding many-particle systems in quantum theory.
Endorsed by Physics Today and Endeavor, this book is considered the most comprehensive text in its field and is highly recommended for postgraduate students and educators alike.
