Semiclassical limit of the Dirac equation and spin precession
Herbert Spohn
We study the Dirac equation with slowly varying external potentials. Using matrix-valued Wigner functions we prove that the electron follows with high precision the classical orbit…
The critical manifold of the Lorentz-Dirac equation
Herbert Spohn
We investigate the solutions to the Lorentz-Dirac equation and show that its solution flow has a structure identical to the one of renormalization group flows in critical phenomena…
Statistical Self-Similarity of One-Dimensional Growth Processes
Michael Praehofer, Herbert Spohn
For one-dimensional growth processes we consider the distribution of the height above a given point of the substrate and study its scale invariance in the limit of large times. We…
Dynamics of charged particles and their radiation field
Herbert Spohn
We investigate the adiabatic limit for classical charges coupled to their Maxwell field.
Large deviations for ideal quantum systems
Joel L. Lebowitz, Marco Lenci, Herbert Spohn
We consider a general d-dimensional quantum system of non-interacting particles, with suitable statistics, in a very large (formally infinite) container. We prove that, in equilibr…
Radiation Reaction and Center Manifolds
Markus, Kunze, Herbert Spohn
We study the effective dynamics of a mechanical particle coupled to a wave field and subject to the slowly varying potential $V(\eps q)$ with $\eps$ small. To lowest order in $\eps…
