  2. Quantum field theory in curved spacetime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_field_theory_in...

    In theoretical physics, quantum field theory in curved spacetime (QFTCS) [1] is an extension of quantum field theory from Minkowski spacetime to a general curved spacetime. This theory uses a semi-classical approach; it treats spacetime as a fixed, classical background, while giving a quantum-mechanical description of the matter and energy ...
