Published in 2013 by Cambridge University Press, Introduction to Quantum Effects in Gravity offers an accessible entry point into quantum field theory within gravitational contexts. Tailored for undergraduate and beginning graduate students in theoretical astrophysics, cosmology, particle physics, and string theory, this textbook guides the reader through the essential concepts of quantizing fields in an expanding universe and analyzing quantum fluctuations in inflationary spacetimes. The book provides detailed treatments of phenomena such as the Casimir, Unruh, and Hawking effects, and it introduces the effective action method as a tool for studying the back-reaction of quantum systems on classical gravitational fields. Each major result is derived meticulously from first principles, ensuring that the material is both comprehensive and comprehensible. Assuming only a basic knowledge of general relativity, this self-contained work features clear derivations and includes exercises with detailed solutions to reinforce the reader’s understanding. Whether used as a classroom text or as a reference for further research, Introduction to Quantum Effects in Gravity provides a robust foundation in the interplay between quantum mechanics and gravitational theory.
