Download or read book Quantum Tunneling in Complex Systems written by Joachim Ankerhold and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-02-15 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last two decades remarkable progress has been made in understanding and describing tunneling processes in complex systems in terms of classical trajectories. This book introduces recent concepts and achievements with particular emphasis on a dynamical formulation and relations to specific systems in mesoscopic, molecular, and atomic physics. Advanced instanton techniques, e.g. for decay rates and tunnel splittings, are discussed in the first part. The second part covers current developments for wave-packet tunneling in real-time, and the third part describes thermodynamics and dynamical approaches for barrier transmission in statistical, particularly dissipative systems.
