This book describes how modern quantum field theory is capable of treating, not only quantum field particles, but also objects with classical and quantum mechanical degrees of freedom, including thermal degrees of freedom. It thus provides a unified overview of many areas of physics on the basis of the concept of macroscopic quantum vacuum. It is intended for students and researchers in high energy, nuclear, and condensed matter physics, quantum optics and cosmology.
