Lecture notes for the classical part (updated 28/05 - contain now all the material)
Topics from Lectures 10 and 11 are covered in R. Liboff,
"Kinetic Theory: Classical, Quantum, and Relativistic Descriptions".
Quench dynamics and relaxation in isolated integrable quantum spin chains
Review article by F. Essler and M. Fagotti, we use it for "intro to quantum" and Lectures 12 and 13.
A short introduction to Generalized Hydrodynamics
Review article also by Fabian H.L. Essler, Lecture 15 is based on it.
