Abstract:

In the framework of thermo field dynamics, the so-called thermal state conditions of the vacuum are extended from the equilibrium case to general cases in the Heisenberg picture. The formalism is shown to describe nonequilibrium phenomena of a quantum field system. It is shown that the causal formulation of a perturbation theory is developed. As an example of application of the perturbation theory, an effective Hamiltonian describing a reservoir effect is obtained.
