Quantum Field Theory
Abstract
This book is a modern pedagogic introduction to the ideas and techniques of quantum field theory. After a brief overview of particle physics and a survey of relativistic wave equations and Lagrangian methods, the quantum theory of scalar and spinor fields, and then of gauge fields, is developed. The emphasis throughout is on functional methods, which have played a large part in modern field theory. The book concludes with a brief survey of 'topological' objects in field theory and, new to this edition, a chapter devoted to supersymmetry.

“When ξ is positive, this equation is equivalent to the Proca equation [34-36] and m A ≡ ξ 1 / 2 can be interpreted as the rest mass of photons.”
From Electrodynamics on cosmological scales (2016) · cites this paper as [34]
In the citing paper
“This type of electromagnetic field equations can naturally arise from spontaneous symmetry breaking and the Higgs mechanism in quantum field theory, where photons acquire a mass by eating massless Goldstone bosons.”

“Although ξ can just be a fundamental constant in nature, an effective ξA a term can naturally arise from spontaneous symmetry breaking by the Higgs mechanism if the electromagnetic field is coupled to a complex scalar field [33, 34].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
