We apply this formalism to the study of pair production from strong external fields as well as the time evolution of a nonequilibrium chiral phase transition.19 pages, 4 figuresHigh Energy Physics - TheoryNonequilibrium problems in quantum field theory and Schwinger's Closed Time Path formalismtext
