Plasmon spectrum of degenerated electron gas. T=0 Green function method. Detailed pedagogical derivation
arXiv:cond-mat/0302048
Abstract
Plasmon spectrum and polarization operator of 1, 2, and 3 dimensional electron gas are calculated by T=0 Green function technique. It is shown that this field theory method gives probably the simplest pedagogical derivation of the statistical problem for the response function. The explanation is complimentary to the standard courses on condensed matter and plasma physics of the level of IX volume of Landau-Lifshitz encyclopedia on theoretical physics.
