Perturbative Quantum Field Theory

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2014-11-17 v1

Abstract

This talk introduces perturbative quantum field on a heuristic level. It is directed at an audience familiar with elements of quantum mechanics, but not necessarily with high energy physics. It includes a discussion of the strategies behind experimental tests of fundamental theories, and of the field theory interpretations of these tests
