In particular, the transport coefficients that relate the flow of the physical quantities and the parameters of the system is important to follow the evolution of the system in a consistent way. In cosmology, the evolution of the particle number densities with their interactions and magnetohydrodynamics can be understood as the transport phenomena. In these cases, the transport coefficients are identified as the scattering rate, electric conductivity, viscosity, and so on. In this talk, I will introduce the way to calculate these transport coefficients from the linear response theory with the quantum field theory. I will derive the formula to estimate the electric conductivity and the kinetic equation for the spontaneous baryogenesis, which has only been intuitively given. References: [1] D.
