Journey to the Bound States

Meer over het boek

Focusing on bound states in elementary particle physics, this graduate-level self-study guide explores quantum electrodynamics through Feynman diagrams and introduces a novel Fock expansion method in temporal gauge. It delves into the properties of relativistic bound states, including Dirac states, moving atoms, and hadrons in quantum chromodynamics, addressing color confinement. Designed to complement quantum field theory courses, it serves as a valuable resource for both graduate students and experienced researchers.
