[Dr. Chris Oakley's home page] [More comments about academic research] The search for a quantum field theory or: Surely you're joking, Mr. Feynman I left the academic profession at the age of 27, having made serious attempts to solve a major scientific problem that has been outstanding since 1929. I left not because the research I was doing was failing, but because it was virtually impossible to continue in the face of total opposition from the academic establishment. Looking back on it fifteen years on, my experience reminds me of the film Logan's Run , where the system trains young people only to the point at which they become a threat. After that it has to eliminate them. Here is the full story When I was doing my A-levels in 1976, elementary particle physics was considered the ultimate scientific study, and not just among scientists: there were regular popular science TV programs on the subject and many of the general public were au fait with such concepts as Bubble Chambers, Quarks, Gluons, Strangeness and Charm. Such was the interest that I found myself spending a lot of time explaining these things to non-specialists, including family and friends, and when I got the chance to do graduate study in the field, I was was thrilled. I then discovered something that seems so obvious that I cannot believe that I am the first to see it: namely that if the field is written as a power series in the coupling constant, then the field equations enable a simple reduction of an interacting field in terms of the free field and any amplitude can be calculated just by inspection.

Crystal Field Theory (CFT), An Introduction. Lecture 3. C10K Coordination Chemistry In the ionic CFT, it is assumed that the ions are simple point charges . When applied to alkali metal ions containing a symmetric sphere of charge, calculations of energies are generally quite successful. The approach taken uses classical potential energy equations that take into account the attractive and repulsive interactions between charged particles (that is, Coulomb's Law interactions). Electrostatic Potential is proportional to q * q /r where q and q are the charges of the interacting ions and r is the distance separating them. This leads to the correct prediction that large cations of low charge, such as K and Na , should form few coordination compounds. For transition metal cations that contain varying numbers of d electrons in orbitals that are NOT spherically symmetric, however, the situation is quite different. The shape and occupation of these d-orbitals then becomes important in an accurate description of the bond energy and properties of the transition metal compound. To be able to understand and use CFT then, it is essential to have a clear picture of the shapes (angular dependence functions) of the d-orbitals.

The reviews on Amazon.com are also worth reading. Overview An Introduction to Quantum Field Theory is a textbook intended for the graduate course covering relativistic quantum mechanics, quantum electrodynamics, and Feynman diagrams. The authors make this subject accessible through carefully worked examples illustrating the technical aspects of the subject, and intuitive explanations of what is going on behind the mathematics. After presenting the basics of quantum electrodynamics, the authors discuss the theory of renormalization and its relation to statistical mechanics, and introduce the renormalization group. This discussion sets the stage for a treatment of non-Abelian gauge theories and their use in describing the fundamental interactions of elementary particles.

32. Unified Field Theory Unified field theory In the mid19th century James Clerk Maxwell formulatedthe first field theory in his theory of electromagnetism. http://zebu.uoregon.edu/~js/glossary/unified_field_theory.html

Unified Field Theory Unified field theory, in particle physics, is an attempt to describe all fundamental forces and the relationships between elementary particles in terms of a single theoretical framework. Forces can be described by fields that mediate interactions between separate objects. In the mid-19th century James Clerk Maxwell formulated the first field theory in his theory of electromagnetism. Then, in the early part of the 20th century, Albert Einstein developed general relativity, a field theory of gravitation. Later, Einstein and others attempted to construct a unified field theory in which electromagnetism and gravity would emerge as different aspects of a single fundamental field. They failed, and to this day gravity remains beyond attempts at a unified field theory. At subatomic distances, fields are described by quantum field theories, which apply the ideas of quantum mechanics to the fundamental field. In the 1940s quantum electrodynamics (QED), the quantum field theory of electromagnetism, became fully developed. In QED, charged particles interact as they emit and absorb photons (minute packets of electromagnetic radiation), in effect exchanging the photons in a game of subatomic "catch." This theory works so well that it has become the prototype for theories of the other forces. During the 1960s and '70s particle physicists discovered that matter is composed of two types of basic building blockthe fundamental particles known as quarks and leptons. The quarks are always bound together within larger observable particles, such as protons and neutrons. They are bound by the short-range strong force, which overwhelms electromagnetism at subnuclear distances. The leptons, which include the electron, do not "feel" the strong force. However, quarks and leptons both experience a second nuclear force, the weak force. This force, which is responsible for certain types of radioactivity classed together as beta decay, is feeble in comparison with electromagnetism.

33. Electromagnetic Field Theory Group At IFH It is our pleasure to welcome you to the web site of the Electromagnetic FieldTheory Group at the Laboratory for Electromagnetic Fields and Microwave http://www.ifh.ee.ethz.ch/Field/

IFH Field Theory or Electromagnetics is a discipline that describes the behaviour of electric and magnetic fields and their sources in a specific environment. This environment can be guiding or radiating structures in a homogeneous or inhomogeneous medium with or without losses. The complexity of today's relevant problems in electromagnetics are such that in most cases analytical solutions to Maxwell's equations are not possible. Thus a continuous physical reality, the electromagnetic field, is represented by a discretized, sampled numerical approximation to replicate the behaviour of the actual problem with appropriate accuracy and resolution. Therefore the discipline of field theory or electromagnetics is nowadays often referred to as computational electromagnetics We hope you will enjoy surfing on our web site and find valuable information on our different research and teaching activities! , head of the Field Theory Group at IFH.
