abstract = {This book develops the basic formalism and theoretical
techniques for studying relativistic quantum field theory at
high temperature and density. Specific physical theories
treated include QED, QCD, electroweak theory, and effective
nuclear field theories of hadronic and nuclear matter.
Topics covered include: functional integral representation
of the partition function, diagrammatic expansions, linear
response theory, screening and plasma oscillations,
spontaneous symmetry breaking, Goldstone theorem,
resummation and hard thermal loops, lattice gauge theory,
phase transitions, nucleation theory, quark-gluon plasma,
and color superconductivity. Applications to astrophysics
and cosmology cover white dwarf and neutron stars, neutrino
emissivity, baryon number violation in the early universe,
and cosmological phase transitions. Applications to
relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions are also included.
The book is written for theorists in elementary particle
physics, nuclear physics, astrophysics, and cosmology.},
