- | **Recommended Textbooks** | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | * Solitons and Instantons by Ramamurti Rajaraman - is the best introductory book on solitons and related topics | ||
- | * Topological Solitons by Manton and Sutcliff - is the second-best introductory book on solitons | ||
- | * [[http://scipp.ucsc.edu/~haber/ph218/classicallumpsreview_Infanger.pdf|Classical lumps and their quantum descendants]] by Sidney Coleman - a "must read" lecture for anyone interested in solitons | ||
- | * Classical Solutions in Quantum Field Theory: Solitons and Instantons by Erick Weinberg - contains several helpful chapters | ||
- | * Classical Theory of Gauge Fields by Rubakov - is great to dive deeper and contains many alternative perspectives that can't be found anywhere else. | ||
- | |||
- | * Quarks, Leptons & Gauge Fields by Kerson Huang - contains several extremely helpful chapters regarding solitons etc. | ||
- | * Quantum Field Theory by Lewis H. Ryder - contains, like Huang's book - a particular nice chapter on solitons and instantons | ||
