Quantum Electrodynamics Based On Self-Energy: Lamb Shift And Spontaneous Emission Without Field Quantization, A. O. Barut, Jean F. Van Huele

Faculty Publications

The theory of radiative processes in quantum theory is formulated on the basis of self-energy, in analogy to classical radiation theory, and is explicitly carried out for the calculation of the Lamb shift and spontaneous emission.
