Causality Rules
Morgan & Claypool Publishers (Verlag)
978-1-68174-916-7 (ISBN)
Scattering of light by light is a fundamental process arising at the quantum level through vacuum fluctuations. This short book will explain how, remarkably enough, this quantum process can entirely be described in terms classical quantities. This description is derived from general principles, such as causality, unitarity, Lorentz, and gauge symmetries. The reader will be introduced into a rigorous formulation of these fundamental concepts, as well as their physical interpretation and applications.
Vladimir Pascalutsa is a tenured scientist at the Institute for Nuclear Physics of the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz, Germany. Prior to this, he studied and researched at the Kiev State University and Kernfysisch Versneller Instituut (KVI), before obtaining his PHD at the Institute for Theoretical Physics in Utrecht. He also held postdoctoral positions at NIKHEF (Amsterdam, the Netherlands), Flinders University (Adelaide, Australia), Ohio University (Athens OH, USA), College of William and Mary (Williamsburg VA, USA), and the ECT* (Trento, Italy).
