Quantum field theory in curved spacetime has been remarkably
fruitful. It can be used to explain how the large-scale structure
of the universe and the anisotropies of the cosmic background
radiation that we observe today first arose. Similarly, it provides
a deep connection between general relativity, thermodynamics, and
quantum field theory. This book develops quantum field theory in
curved spacetime in a pedagogical style, suitable for graduate
students. The authors present detailed, physically motivated,
derivations of cosmological and black hole processes in which
curved spacetime plays a key role. They explain how such processes
in the rapidly expanding early universe leave observable
consequences today, and how in the context of evaporating black
holes, these processes uncover deep connections between gravitation
and elementary particles. The authors also lucidly describe many
other aspects of free and interacting quantized fields in curved
spacetime.
