Thermo field dynamics - thermal state condition and quantum algebra

  • 1. Alberta Univ., Edmonton (Canada). Dept. of Physics

Description

Thermo field dynamics, which is quantum field theory at finite temperature, is presented from the viewpoint of the basic axioms of the thermal state condition (which specifies the temperature state of the ground state) and an operator algebra. Perturbation theory is formulated on the basis of a general quantum algebra. The problem of vacuum diagrams is also discussed. (orig.)
