Goldstone and Pseudo-Goldstone Bosons in Nuclear, Particle and Condensed-Matter Physics
Abstract
These notes review the effective lagrangian treatment of Goldstone and pseudo-Goldstone bosons, taking examples from high-energy/nuclear and condensed-matter physics. The contents are: 1. Goldstone Bosons 2. Pions: A Relativistic Application 3. Magnons: Nonrelativistic Applications 4. SO(5) Invariance and Superconductors 5. Bibliography
