Compton scattering in TFD formalism
arXiv:2212.13820 · doi:10.1140/epjc/s10052-023-11182-x
Abstract
In this paper, the cross section for the Compton scattering process at finite temperature is calculated. Temperature effects are introduced using the Thermofield Dynamics (TFD) formalism. It is a real-time finite temperature quantum field theory. Our result shows that thermal effects become relevant as the temperature increases. A comparison between the TFD and closed-time path results is presented.
