Thermo Field Dynamics and Kinetic Coefficients of a Charged Boson Gas ∗
Abstract
Thermo Field Dynamics for inhomogeneous systems is generalized to quantum fields with a continuous single-particle mass spectrum. The modification of the hamiltonian in states with a local thermal Bogoliubov symmetry is used to calculate thermal conductivity and diffusion coefficient of pions interacting with hot, compressed nuclear matter. ∗ Work supported by GSI
