说明

这是2017年由The Royal Institution发布的一部课堂讲座，主题归在Quantum physics。它讲的是quantum field theory这一支里的具体问题，而不是把整个领域扫一遍。适合按兴趣直接看、不打算先补课的人。内容上可以概括成：David Tong, a Cambridge theoretical physicist, explains at the Royal Institution that the fundamental building blocks of nature are quantum fields rather than particles. He covers what we know about these fields and how they fit into the Standard Model.这些读者给出的理由，核心是：Called a favorite and a masterpiece by commenters as the clearest accessible explanation that there are only waves in fields, and what physics still doesn't know.讲法不绑某一条新闻，过几年仍然可以当材料看。从2019年到2025年，有5位不同的读者在6个不同月份把它推荐出来，其中明确叫别人去看的有3次。节奏接近上课，可以暂停做笔记。它假设你愿意跟着一条推导走完。如果已经会了基本定义，就把注意力放在它怎么把quantum field theory变成能跟着复述的例子。
