商品描述

An exceptionally accessible introduction to quantum field theory

Quantum field theory is by far the most spectacularly successful theory in physics, but also one of the most mystifying. Quantum Field Theory, as Simply as Possible provides an essential primer on the subject, giving readers the conceptual foundations they need to wrap their heads around one of the most important yet baffling subjects in physics.

Quantum field theory grew out of quantum mechanics in the late 1930s and was developed by a generation of brilliant young theorists, including Julian Schwinger and Richard Feynman. Their predictions were experimentally verified to an astounding accuracy unmatched by the rest of physics. Quantum field theory unifies quantum mechanics and special relativity, thus providing the framework for understanding the quantum mysteries of the subatomic world. With his trademark blend of wit and physical insight, A. Zee guides readers from the classical notion of the field to the modern frontiers of quantum field theory, covering a host of topics along the way, including antimatter, Feynman diagrams, virtual particles, the path integral, quantum chromodynamics, electroweak unification, grand unification, and quantum gravity.

A unique and valuable introduction for students and general readers alike, Quantum Field Theory, as Simply as Possible explains how quantum field theory informs our understanding of the universe, and how it can shed light on some of the deepest mysteries of physics.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

量子場論的極易理解入門

量子場論無疑是物理學中最成功的理論之一，但同時也是最神秘的理論之一。《量子場論，簡單明瞭》提供了這一主題的基本入門，讓讀者掌握理解物理學中最重要但又令人困惑的主題所需的概念基礎。

量子場論起源於1930年代末的量子力學，並由一代才華橫溢的年輕理論家發展而成，包括朱利安·施溫格（Julian Schwinger）和理查德·費曼（Richard Feynman）。他們的預測在實驗中得到了驚人的準確性驗證，這一準確性在物理學的其他領域中無法比擬。量子場論統一了量子力學和特殊相對論，從而提供了理解亞原子世界量子奧秘的框架。A. Zee以其標誌性的幽默和物理洞察力，引導讀者從經典的場概念走向量子場論的現代前沿，沿途涵蓋了許多主題，包括反物質、費曼圖、虛粒子、路徑積分、量子色動力學、電弱統一、大統一和量子引力。

《量子場論，簡單明瞭》是學生和一般讀者的獨特且有價值的入門書籍，解釋了量子場論如何影響我們對宇宙的理解，以及它如何能夠揭示物理學中一些最深奧的謎題。
