An overview of classical solutions and their consequences in quantum field theory, high energy physics and cosmology for graduates and researchers.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
Erick J. Weinberg is Professor of Physics in the Department of Physics, Columbia University. Since 1996 he has been Editor of Physical Review D. His research interests include the implications of solitons and instantons for high-energy physics, cosmology and black holes, as well as a variety of other topics in quantum field theory.
