1 Introduction
This work could not be born without the supportive work environment of the author, including
the Hungarian Academy of Sciences as a whole and in particular, the Wigner Research Centre
for Physics (by the time of the publication of this book, a part of the Eötvös Loránd Research
Network). The service of the librarians of the latter institute was invaluable for collecting the
literature background of the present book.
And last but definitely not least, the author must express his deepest acknowledgement to his
family. Being patient and tolerant with a family member who works as a scientist is hard in general,
but it is particularly challenging when this scientist is engaged in a work that lasts years. Thank you
for the immense lenience it required.
