Everybody check out John Baez TWF 264 where he reports Coleman legendary QFT lecture notes are now online!

You can get them if you go to Harvard's physics page.

Highly recommended to anyone who is learning field theory (or if you need to learn how to teach the subject). No one ever did it better.

I watched them years ago, since we had some copies in our library (as well as some of his Erice lectures).

Bonus points for the 70s vibe and the hilarious chainsmoking.
 

Thread 'Quantum Entanglement is a Kinematic Fact, not a Dynamical Effect'

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. Towards the end of the first lecture for the Qiskit Global Summer School 2025, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics, Olivia Lanes (Global Lead, Content and Education IBM) stated...

Thread 'Quantum behaviour of an electron around a positively charged sphere'

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
