Quantum field theory in curved spacetime. 15
Description
Canonical quantization methods are presented for quantization of the matter fields in the background of a fixed classical gravitational field given by Einstein's equations. This is used to discuss particle creation effects in typical cosmological models and to define notions like conformal vacua and adiabatic vacua. (author). 6 refs
