Quantum field theory is the best method we have for describing particles and forces in a way that takes both quantum mechanics…

Some Useful Integrals In Quantum Field Theory
In my paper on renormalisation I mentioned what most who have studied calculations in Quantum Field Theory find, it's rather complicated and mind-numbing.…

Introduction to Causal Perturbation Theory
Relativistic quantum field theory is notorious for the occurrence of divergent expressions that must be renormalized by recipes that on first sight sound…

Why Renormalisation in Quantum Theory Needs a Cutoff
Introduction
This is a follow on from my paper explaining renormalization. A question was raised - why exactly do we need a cut-off. There is a deep reason…

Quantum Renormalisation Made Easy
What Is The Issue With Renormalisation
If you have an interest in physics you have likely come across renormalisation before, although what it really…
