This is why my "science" education is bad, those guys were my lecturers

I have done the QFFF course at Imperial. The course is very specific, its made so that you can do the algebra of quantum field theory and standard model, purposely made to suit the interest of the department : String theory. I went in and I found very little overlap between the stuffs they do...

Could not agree more :approve:

I am working on de Broglie-Bohm theory for a summer. The trouble with foundation of quantum mechanics is, a lot of it has been philosophical debate and not much of experimental predictions. People usually take the attitude that "quantum mechanics work but there are something I don't like but...

Hi all, If you are looking to be on the top of the world, I would highly suggest to go to United States for simple reason, they have much more money. The UK traditionally have had very good (but old fashion) physics department, I am my self at Imperial College in the theoretical department...

I am in the UK, Don't come here, go to US or perhaps China, UK has recently had its funding budget slashed again thanks to bailing out banks. There are no industries here other than banking Absolutely nearly zero scholarship for foreign student Well, with all that conditions, not...

Yes, that is the whole point, with QED picture there is no "action at a distance" since I said that force is change in momentum, anything that carries momentum can exert a force by passing on the momentum. Every photon can only be specified by its momentum and its polarization

You see, understanding is difficult, understanding takes time and patience, a lot of time and patience. Most people are scheduled so tightly that they are overwhelmed with work and got other things in life that time to sit and think seems hard to afford. Keep trying though, why not try...

Force = change in momentum Photon carries momentum !

The thing is, Mr Feynman understood his maths very well, that's why he was confident enough to extract all the physical information out of it. There really is no right or wrong path in physics, its a matter of taste, people have different style, and each particular style would tackle different...

Hi there, I am doing the QFFF course at ICL at the moment, buzz me if you got questions.

1. I am on Master program 2. Study spot, yes, a place favourable to studies, anywhere that you feel comfortable enough to study without too much distractions but at the same time not too comfortable that you fall asleep, this could be a quiet cafe or some spot in library or at home. Years...

Hi there I know exactly what you mean, I study in the UK and got my BSc in Physics, EMT and GR was quite tough for me but I ended up doing okay because I liked found the maths for them quite aesthetically pleasing. However, coming onto graduate level course (on my arbitrary scale...

its tough... you can say that university is place for self study under some guidance and yes, the amount of work require to do proper physics is ridiculous, you really need a real degree or you need to be incredibly disciplined (to get a degree you need some level of disciplinary anyway) I...
