《經(jīng)典域論和應(yīng)力：能量張量（英文）》作者是馬克·S.斯旺森（Mark S.Swanson），他是美國(guó)康涅狄格大學(xué)物理學(xué)名譽(yù)教授。他的個(gè)人簡(jiǎn)介如下：
馬克·S.斯旺森于1976年在密蘇里州哥倫比亞大學(xué)獲得物理學(xué)博士學(xué)位，在埃德蒙頓的阿爾伯塔大學(xué)獲得博士后學(xué)位，他于1979年加入康涅狄格大學(xué)的物理系，研究重點(diǎn)是正則量子化技術(shù)與路徑積分的函數(shù)方法之間的關(guān)系，他編寫了專著《路徑積分與量子過程》，此外，他還擔(dān)任過斯坦福德校區(qū)主任和副院長(zhǎng)等行政職務(wù)，他于2014年退休，現(xiàn)在是名譽(yù)物理學(xué)教授，他與妻子一起住在康涅狄格州，在那里他繼續(xù)從事與物理學(xué)、計(jì)算機(jī)編程有關(guān)的工作，并以彈吉他為樂。
While it is fair to say that the last century of physics has been dominated both experimentally and theoretically by the study of quantum processes， the framework for the understanding of these phenomena consists of concepts developed in classical physics and extended to quantum mechanical systems. In that regard， the necessity of generalizing the concepts of energy， momentum and angular momentum to the case of classical fields provided the tools used in the wave-particle duality of quantum mechanics. Classical electrodynamics and non-abelian gauge theories have become successful quantum field theories， yielding deep insights into quantum processes. At the time of writing， developing a quantum mechanically consistent version of gravitation is a vigorous and unsettled area of research， yet the insights provided by Einstein's classical theory of general relativity remain the basis for much of the effort to create such a theory.
Mark Swanson, received his PhD in physics from the University of Missouri at Columbia in 1976. After a post-doctoral appointment at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, he joined the physics department at the University of Connecticut in 1979. His research focused on the relationship between canonical quantization techniques and the functional approach of path integrals, which led to authoring the monograph 'Path Integrals and Quantum Processes'. In addition, he served in administrative capacity as the Stamford Campus director and an associate dean. He retired in 2014 and is now emeritus professor of physics. He lives in Connecticut with his wife where he continues to work on physics, programming computers, and amusing himself with the guitar.
