The motion of a particle undergoing quantum tunneling has long been an open and debated problem in several aspects. One of the most discussed is the determination of the time spent in such processes, but many other features deserve consideration. In this volume, both theoretical and experimental aspects, such as quantum measurement, optical analogy, experimental tests, solid state devices and time scale for anomalies (quantum Zeno effect and superluminal evanescence), are explored.

The topics discussed in the Tutzing conference are applications of path integrals in quantum chaos, quantum tunneling, Monte Carlo methods, polarons, solid state physics, physical chemistry, and others. The reports by experts in the fields are timely; the results reported are mostly new. This volume reveals how broad the range of path integral applications has become.
