SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the pursuit of introductory Quantum Field Theory (QFT) courses, specifically highlighting the MIT OpenCourseWare offering "8.323: Relativistic Quantum Field Theory I" and David Tong's lectures. Participants express a need for problem set solutions to enhance their learning experience. Eduardo Fradkin's resources and the Harvard QFT course notes are mentioned as valuable alternatives that include solutions. The community is encouraged to collaborate on QFT studies to tackle problem sets collectively.

PREREQUISITES
  • Basic understanding of Quantum Mechanics
  • Familiarity with Special Relativity
  • Knowledge of mathematical concepts such as linear algebra and calculus
  • Access to online educational platforms like MIT OpenCourseWare
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore the MIT OpenCourseWare "8.323: Relativistic Quantum Field Theory I" for lecture notes
  • Investigate Eduardo Fradkin's website for homework solutions and notes
  • Review the Harvard QFT course notes available online
  • Join online forums or study groups focused on Quantum Field Theory for collaborative learning
USEFUL FOR

Students, physicists, and educators interested in Quantum Field Theory, particularly those seeking structured learning resources and collaborative study opportunities.

I wanting to do an introductory Quantum Field theory course in my spare time. And although there are a couple available, they are not very beneficial without solutions to the problem sets.
I am also looking at the course on the MIT open courseware website: "8.323: Relativistic Quantum Field Theory I".
Like the David Tong lectures this has lecture notes and problem sets, but no solutions.

If anyone knows how to obtain the solutions that would be great, or alternatively if there is another course somewhere online that has solutions.

Also, if anyone else wants to embark on a Quantum Field Theory course we could all work through a course and discuss the problems together?

There are several courses online with solutions. Eduardo fradkin the homework and his notes on his website. The notes for the Harvard QFT course (which is pretty much a draft of the textbook) are online.
