I went to college a long time ago. Since then the LHC verified the higgs boson. The higgs field and the higgs bubbles that separated quarks from antiquarks is something I’ve been looking at.
However I never took quantum mechanics and have little understanding of quantum fields. I would like to rectify that problem.
Can someone with knowledge give me a push in the right direction… What books to start with, are there online lectures?
Thank you
Thanks. I have a good understanding of calculus and physics. I did take statistics like 30 years ago so probably very fuzzy now. Any specialities to focus on before I get started in QM?
Nah, just the basics is fine. I would recommend Griffith’s and then moving on to Shankar.
If you remember linear algebra and know what’s a hilbert spaci, you`re good to go.
It’s a solid math foundation but any second year student in math/physics/mechanics get it
