Quantum Field Theory
Details
This is an advanced study group dedicated to the rigorous study of Quantum Field Theory. The following prerequisites are assumed:
- Linear Algebra
- Multivariate Calculus
- Ordinary and partial differential equations
- Quantum mechanics,
- Electromagnetism and Special Relativity.
Our main textbook is Mark Srednicki's "Quantum Field Theory," which is available online: https://web.physics.ucsb.edu/~mark/ms-qft-DRAFT.pdf
The format of the meetup is as follows:
- We meet every two weeks
- In the first 30 to 45 minutes, we discuss problem solutions from the previous assignment
- In the remaining time, volunteers will present the current assignment.
For the next meeting we will be going through problems from chapter 9 and then cover chapter 10.
