Executive Summary of Lecture 00Particle Physics – full of QM and SR.
Starting with the relativistic relation between E, p, and m, you construct K-G and Dirac equations by quantum mechanical replacements. They areessentially differential equations. The continuity equation is derived using thesolutions of those equations, giving us a form of “currents”.
Those “currents” are key elements of describing the particle-particleinteraction via exchange of gauge boson (from local gauge symmetry), whichis expressed as a propagator from quantum mechanical perturbation theory.This is known as matrix element. The mathematical formulations turns into theFeynman rules.
Those developments are for elementary particles (i.e., point-like particles)and fundamental forces. When the above formulations are applied for protonand neutron (spin-1/2 particles like quarks), we have to re-write them ingeneralized forms. This has been successful.
So far, quarks and leptons are consistent with point-like particles. But thisdoesn’t mean there is no substructure.

Assume a particle moving with momentum 𝒑 in free space. It isdescribed by a de Broglie wave function:
𝝍 𝒓, 𝒕 = 𝑵𝒆𝒊(𝒑∙𝒓−𝑬 𝒕)/ℏ
with frequency 𝝂 = 𝑬/𝒉 and wavelength 𝝀 = 𝒉/ 𝒑 ; 𝑵 is a normalizationconstant.
[Classical Mechanics] E, p, and L of a particle are dynamical variablesrepresented by time-dependent real numbers.
[Schrodinger Picture of Quantum Mechanics] The wave function (Y)is postulated to contain all the information about particular state.

Pattern in Particle Physics
A Little Bit of Relativistic Quantum Field Theory QFT treats particles as excited states (also called quanta) of their underlying
fields. Interactions between particles are described in the Lagrangianinvolving their corresponding fields.
Lagrangian is concepted to reproduce the field equations by treating thespace and time coordinates on an equal footing and to be invariant under localgauge transformation for a given (set of) quantum number(s). This introduces a(set of) new vector field(s) (e.g., 𝐴𝜇) that couples to particles (𝜓) with the
quantum number(s) (e.g., 𝑞 𝑗𝑓𝑖𝜇𝐴𝜇 = 𝑞 ( ത𝜓𝛾𝜇𝜓)𝐴𝜇).
Each interaction can be represented by Feynman diagrams in the process ofrelativistic perturbation theory.
Theorists build the “model” to address the unanswered questions by the standard model, Think of the Interconnection between Particle Physics and Cosmology.
Experimentalists test the model. (How? – Lagrangian tells you.)

Amount of contribution of each diagram is determined by coupling constant (a = 1/137 in electromagnetic case) and number of vertices.
Perturbation Theory: If the coupling constant is small enough, higher-order contributions are negligible and total cross-section quickly converges to a finite value.

Higher-order Processes
Any real process receives contributions from all possible virtualprocesses. e.g., 𝑒−𝑒− → 𝑒−𝑒− scattering. Multi-photon exchange processesare also contributed.
Quiz 0: “𝜸 → 𝒆+𝒆−” Pair Creation
[Q] Why is the Feynman diagram for this pure 𝜸 → 𝒆+𝒆−
process not allowed?
Need at least one other participant (for example, nucleus with charge +𝒁𝒆) to make it as a real process.
For nucleus, the coupling is proportional to 𝑍2𝑒2 ∝ 𝑍2𝛼, hence the rate of this process is of order 𝑍2𝛼?. Therefore, if there is a heavy material (larger 𝑍), probability of pure 𝜸 → 𝒆+𝒆− pair creation becomes higher.
