Loading...- Course DescriptionThe Quantum Field Theory (QFT) course is divided into QFT I, offered in the Spring (112-2), and QFT II, offered in the Fall (113-1). The aim of QFT I is to introduce fundamental concepts and principles of QFT to students at an introductory level. Renormalization (group) and other advanced topics including applications of QFT in condensed matter physics and particle physics will be covered in QFT II.
- Course Objective· Second quantization and canonical quantization · Quantum field with spin · Perturbation theory and Feynman diagrams · Quantum electrodynamics · Aspects of QFT in condensed matter physics and particle physics
- Course RequirementElectromagnetism, classical mechanics, and quantum physics at the undergraduate level
