It then applies this technique to both fundamental and practical problems that are relevant, in particular, to nanodevice physics, laser?matter interaction, and radiation damage in living tissue. The interaction between electrons and atomic vibrations (phonons) is an example of how a process at the heart of quantum dynamics can impact our everyday lives. This is e.g. how electrical current generates heat, making your toaster work. It is also a key process behind many crucial problems down to the atomic and molecular scale, such as the functionality of nanoscale electronic devices, the relaxation of photo-excited systems, the energetics of systems under irradiation, and thermoelectric effects. Electron?phonon interactions represent a difficult many-body problem. Fairly standard techniques are available for tackling cases in which one of the two subsystems can be treated as a steady-state bath for the other, but determining the simultaneous coupled dynamics of the two poses a real challenge. This book tackles precisely this problem. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aAtoms 606 $aPhysics 606 $aSuperconductivity 606 $aSuperconductors 606 $aQuantum theory 606 $aNanoscience 606 $aNanoscience 606 $aNanostructures 606 $aAtoms and Molecules in Strong Fields, Laser Matter Interaction$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24025 606 $aStrongly Correlated Systems, Superconductivity$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25064 606 $aQuantum Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19080 606 $aNanoscale Science and Technology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25140 615 0$aAtoms. 615 0$aPhysics. 615 0$aSuperconductivity. 615 0$aSuperconductors. 615 0$aQuantum theory. 615 0$aNanoscience. 615 0$aNanoscience. 615 0$aNanostructures. 615 14$aAtoms and Molecules in Strong Fields, Laser Matter Interaction. 615 24$aStrongly Correlated Systems, Superconductivity. 615 24$aQuantum Physics. 615 24$aNanoscale Science and Technology. 676 $a539 700 $aRizzi$b Valerio$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01061661 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300529403321 996 $aReal-Time Quantum Dynamics of Electron?Phonon Systems$92519500 997 $aUNINA
