I don't actually think QFT is stupid, just complicated. I'm the stupid one who finds it difficult was the upshot of my remark. :smile:
Also I ment that you can't get spin-statistics out of non-relativistic quantum but it is predicted by QFT. That fermions and bosons have the spins they do is...
Spin doesn't have a classical analogue because it represents the angular momentum of a point particle. Electrons (for example) have no internal structure and so there is nothing there to spin and yet they have a magnetic dipole moment (Stern-Gerlech Experiment). This is silly to us because 400...
I just started working with mathematical physics coming from a straight physics background. The actual work doesn't seem that hard but some of the notation is unfamilar.
The work is "A Short Course on Quantum Matrices" by Mitsuhiro Takeuchi that can be found at...
I'm new so be nice.
I don't know if you've heard this before but...
A cave boy lived with his family in their cave next to the Hamilton family. Every day the cave boy would ride to school with the Hamilton boy until one day he came home and his mother said, "Son, if you commute with a...
