Nonequilibrium Quasiparticles

Explore the concept of nonequilibrium quasiparticles and their role in quantum transport systems, including their formation, behavior, and impact on system dynamics. Delve into the theoretical framework of Landau theory for Fermi liquids and understand the evolution to equilibrium states. Learn about the redistribution of equilibrium and non-equilibrium quasiparticles in linear and non-linear transport scenarios, and the construction of quantum transport equations.
