Expanding on the concept of the authors' previous book "Electroweak
Processes in External Electromagnetic Fields," this new book
systematically describes the investigation methods for the effects
of external active media, both strong electromagnetic fields and
hot dense plasma, in quantum processes. Solving the solar neutrino
puzzle in a unique experiment conducted with the help of the
heavy-water detector at the Sudbery Neutrino Observatory, along
with another neutrino experiments, brings to the fore electroweak
physics in an active external medium. It is effectively
demonstrated that processes of neutrino interactions with active
media of astrophysical objects may lead, under some physical
conditions, to such interesting effects as neutrino-driven
shockwave revival in a supernova explosion, a "cherry stone
shooting" mechanism for pulsar natal kick, and a neutrino pulsar.
It is also shown how poor estimates of particle dispersion in
external active media sometimes lead to confusion. The book will
appeal to graduate and post-graduate students of theoretical
physics with a prior understanding of Quantum Field Theory (QFT)
and the Standard Model of Electroweak Interactions, as well as to
specialists in QFT who want to know more about the problems of
quantum phenomena in hot dense plasma and external electromagnetic
fields.

An exploration of the intersection of particle physics,
astrophysics, and cosmology known as astroparticle physics. Extreme
electromagnetic conditions present in puslars and other stars allow
for investigations of the role of quantum processes in the dynamics
of astrophysical objects and in the early Universe. Based in part
on the authors' own work, this book systematically describes
several methods of calculation of the effects of strong
electromagnetic fields in quantum processes using analytical
solutions of the Dirac equation and Feynmann diagrams at both the
loop and tree levels. The consideration is emphasized at the two
limiting cases: the case of a very strong magnetic field, and the
case of a crossed field. The presentation will appeal to graduate
students of theoretical physics with prior understanding of Quantum
Field Theory (QFT) and the Standard Model of Electroweak
Interactions, as well as specialists in QFT wishing to know more
about the problems of quantum phenomena in external electomagnetic
fields.
