It is widely used to solve problems in many areas of physics, such as elementary particles, atomic and molecular systems, and solid state physics. This accessible text, \u003cstrong\u003eBasics of Quantum Electrodynamics\u003c\/strong\u003e, supplies a solid foundation in this dynamic area of physics, making a direct connection to the concepts of quantum mechanics familiar to the advanced undergraduate student. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eChapters cover the general theory of free fields and the quantization of the scalar, electromagnetic, and spinorial fields, which prepares readers for understanding field interactions. The authors describe the general theory of field interactions, introducing the scattering matrix and the Feynman-Dyson graphs. They then discuss divergence-free second-order processes, such as Compton and M ller scattering, followed by divergent second-order processes, which cover vacuum polarization and mass and charge renormalization. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eProviding a modern, informative textbook, this volume illustrates the intimate connection between quantum mechanics and QED in two basic steps: the quantization of free fields, followed by the theory of their interactions. The text contains solved problems to facilitate the application of the theory, as well as a useful appendix on the theory of distributions. The step-by-step description of the quantization of various fields and the clear presentation of the most important interaction processes in QED make this textbook a useful guide for those studying physics at both the graduate and undergraduate level, as well as a reference for teachers and researchers in the field.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMerches, Ioan; Tatomir, Dorian; Lupu, Roxana E.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 352\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.9 x 9.1 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 05, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47380656357625,"sku":"9780367380557","price":145.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/YU5vbksrd0pGV2duSkptTDJGNHVhdz09.webp?v=1770066314","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/basics-of-quantum-electrodynamics-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
