What is Quantum Field Theory: A Modern Perspective (Graduate Texts in Contemporary Physics) about?
<p><p>quantum Field Theory, Which Started With Paul Dirac’s Work Shortly After The Discovery Of Quantum Mechanics, Has Produced An Impressive And Important Array Of Results. Quantum Electrodynamics, With Its Extremely Accurate And Well-tested Predictions, And The Standard Model Of Electroweak And Chromodynamic (nuclear) Forces Are Examples Of Successful Theories. Field Theory Has Also Been Applied To A Variety Of Phenomena In Condensed Matter Physics, Including Superconductivity, Superfluidity And The Quantum Hall Effect. The Concept Of The Renormalization Group Has Given Us A New Perspective On Field Theory In General And On Critical Phenomena In Particular. At This Stage, A Strong Case Can Be Made That Quantum Field Theory Is The Mathematical And Intellectual Framework For Describing And Understanding All Physical Phenomena, Except Possibly For A Quantum Theory Of Gravity.<p>quantum Field Theory: A Modern Perspective Presents Professor Nair’s View Of Certain Topics In Field Theory Loosely Knit Together As It Grew Out Of Courses On Field Theory And Particle Physics Taught At Columbia University And The City College Of Cuny. The First Few Chapters, Up To Chapter 12,
