Table Of ContentPreface Chapter 1 The Dirac Equation Chapter 2 Lorentz Covariance of the Dirac Equation Chapter 3 Solutions to the Dirac Equation for a Free Particle Chapter 4 The Foldy-Wouthuysen Transformation Chapter 5 Hole Theory Chapter 6 Propagator Theory Chapter 7 Applications Chapter 8 Higher-order Corrections to the Scattering Matrix Chapter 9 The Klein-Gordon Equation Chapter 10 Nonelectromagnetic Interactions Appendix A Notation Appendix B Rules for Feynman Graphs Index

SynopsisIn this text the authors develop a propagator theory of Dirac particles, photons, and Klein-Gordon mesons and per-form a series of calculations designed to illustrate varioususeful techniques and concepts in electromagnetic, weak, andstrong interactions. these include defining and implementingthe renormalization program and evaluating effects of radia-tive corrections, such as the Lamb shift, in low-ordercalculations. The necessary background for the book is pro-vided by a course in nonrelativistic quantum mechanics atthe general level of Schiff's text, QUANTUM MECHANICS.
