Course Details
• Unit 1: Introduction to Quantum Electrodynamics – This unit will cover the basics of Quantum Electrodynamics (QED), including its history, fundamental principles, and key concepts.
• Unit 2: Quantum Mechanics Review – This unit will provide a review of quantum mechanics, including wave functions, operators, and Schrödinger's equation.
• Unit 3: Special Relativity and Lorentz Transformations – This unit will cover special relativity and Lorentz transformations, which are essential to understanding the behavior of particles at high speeds.
• Unit 4: Maxwell's Equations and Electromagnetic Waves – This unit will cover Maxwell's equations and electromagnetic waves, which describe how electric and magnetic fields interact with charged particles.
• Unit 5: Quantization of the Electromagnetic Field – This unit will cover the quantization of the electromagnetic field, which describes how photons (the particles that make up light) behave.
• Unit 6: Feynman Diagrams and Perturbation Theory – This unit will cover Feynman diagrams and perturbation theory, which are used to calculate the behavior of particles in complex systems.
• Unit 7: Quantum Electrodynamics Processes – This unit will cover various processes in QED, including pair production, Compton scattering, and annihilation.
• Unit 8: Renormalization and Quantum Field Theory – This unit will cover renormalization and quantum field theory, which are used to deal with the infinite quantities that arise in QED calculations.
• Unit 9: Experimental Tests of Quantum Electrodynamics – This unit will cover experimental tests of QED,
