Description

Quantum Field Theory (QFT) is considered to be one of the most successful scientific theories of all time. It explains 3 of the 4 fundamental forces nearly perfectly, with the fourth being described by general relativity. In this poster, I will talk about what exactly a field theory is, the 3 fundamental types of fields, their equations, and their interactions, as well as give a few applications of QFT in physics.
