We analyze the finite temperature behaviour of massless conformally coupled scalar fields in homogeneous lens spaces $S^3/{\mathbb Z}_p$. High and low temperature expansions are explicitly computed and the behavior of thermodynamic…
We describe how thermalization occurs in heavy ion collisions in the framework of perturbative QCD. When the saturation scale $Q_s$ is large compared to $\Lambda_{QCD}$, thermalization takes place during a time of order…
We calculate the cross sections for reactions of the J/psi with light mesons. We also evaluate its finite temperature spectral function. We investigate separately the role of elastic and inelastic channels and we compare their respective…
We study the conduction of heat across a narrow solid strip trapped by an external potential and in contact with its own liquid. Structural changes, consisting of addition and deletion of crystal layers in the trapped solid, are produced by…
The European School of High-Energy Physics is intended to give young physicists an introduction to the theoretical aspects of recent advances in elementary particle physics. These proceedings contain lecture notes on the Standard Model of…
When a system consists of a large subsystem (bath) and a small one (probe), thermalization implies induction of temperature of the bath onto the probe. If both the bath and the probe are described by same microscopic Hamiltonian,…
The report is based on an extended abstract for the MFO workshop "Hilbert Complexes: Analysis, Applications, and Discretizations", held at Oberwolfach during 19-25 June 2022. The aim is to provide an overview of some aspects of…
This volume contains the proceedings of an International Workshop on Idempotent and Tropical Mathematics and Problems of Mathematical Physics, held at the Independent University of Moscow, Russia, on August 25-30, 2007.
These notes evolved from the lecture notes of a minicourse given in Swisk, the Sedano Winter School on K-theory held in Sedano, Spain, during the week January 22--27 of 2007, and from those of a longer course given in the University of…
Several thermodynamic quantities within the planar $t-J$ model are calculated using the $T>0$ Lanczos method on clusters of up to 26 sites. Hole density $c_h(\mu,T)$ shows a non-Fermi liquid behavior as a function of $T$ and suggests a…

This is the summary talk of a meeting held at the California Institute of Technology Sept 10-13, 2001. I do not attempt to summarize all the beautiful experimental results we have seen this week, nor to repeat the lively theoretical…
According to the first and second laws of thermodynamics and the definitions of work and heat, microscopic expressions for the non-equilibrium entropy production have been achieved. Recently, a redefinition of heat has been presented in…
It is well-known that a Rindler observer measures a non-trivial energy flux, resulting in a thermal description in an otherwise Minkowski vacuum. For systems consisting of large number of degrees of freedom, it is natural to isolate a small…
Nuclear response theory beyond the one-loop approximation is formulated for the case of finite temperature. For this purpose, the time blocking approximation to the time-dependent part of the in-medium nucleon-nucleon interaction amplitude…
We review important ideas on nuclear and quark matter description on the basis of high- temperature field theory concepts, like resummation, dimensional reduction, interaction scale separation and spectral function modification in media.…

This is the summary of the working group on $\pi\pi$ and $\pi$N interactions of the Chiral Dynamics Workshop in Mainz, September 1-5, 1997. Each talk is represented by an extended one page abstract. Some additional remarks by the convenors…
In the present study, we propose a new perspective on thermal dissipation based on the thermo field dynamics. From the view point of the renormalization theory, there appear effective interactions between the original and tilde spaces on…
